If you ever think God doesn't exist, you may rethink it after this clip!

Hey Guys,

I'm not a scientist, but when a friend showed me this clip I was amazed at the  length that God went to remind us of the price He paid for us  on  cross!
Take a look...

Encouragement: With Christmas coming, we have a unique opportunity




Welcome Back Everyone~
Recently I've been reminded how important the Christmas season is to Christians as well as the community at large. Not only does it provide us with a unique opportunity to be renewed in the true spirit of the season, but spread the Good News to others!  As Christians, we tend to forget that sometimes... After all, it's so easy to get caught up in the busyness of this life and lose sight of what truly matters most-God's Gift to us.The Father sent His Only Begotten Son to be born of a virgin, knowing the ultimate price Jesus would make for our sins. 

What an amazing sacrifice that is!

The shocking truth is, we don't always live like it is.  But we should.Jesus loved us enough to give his own life and that calls for a response -not one of obligation rather  rather than an attitude of gratitude for what we've been given. Let me put it another way, becoming a Christian is a lot like receiving a organ from someone on donor registry. Recipients are usually keenly aware of the gift they've been given and no longer  take the days on this earth for granted.

Likewise, we are  no longer living of our own will, but thanks to the life-saving procedure of someone else. God doesn't want us just to go through the motions of living, but wants us to enjoy our life free from the bondage of sin.  Essentially, we too are living on "borrowed time" as well.

That doesn't mean this life will be easy.. Take it from me, it's not! There will be times when you question yourself (or God for that matter) as to the decisions you made and whether you're heading down the right path. But stay steadfast, knowing that wherever you're going; God is with you.

Below are the lyrics to Hillsong's "Mighty to save". I especially like the second verse



Everyone needs compassion
A love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me

Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations

(Chorus:)
Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever
Author of Salvation
He rose & conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

So take me as You find me
All my fears & failures
Fill my life again

I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender (I surrender)

(Chorus:) (2x)
Savior

He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever
Author of Salvation
He rose & conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

(Bridge:) (2x)
Shine Your light &
Let the whole world see
We're singing
For the glory
Of the risen King
Jesus

(Chorus)
You're the Savior
You can move the mountains
Lord You are mighty to save
You are mighty to save
Forever
Author of Salvation
You rose & conquered the grave
Yes You conquered the grave

(Bridge:)
