He did it for me

Lyrics from a song I heard recently that have stuck with me through this season and seem especially revelvant today:

and excerpt from "You love me anyway" by the Sidewalk Prophets

I am the thorn in your crown

But You love me anyway

I am the sweat from Your brow

But You love me anyway

I am the nail in Your wrist

But You love me anyway

I am Judas’ kiss

But You love me anyway

See now, I am the man who yelled out from the crowd

For Your blood to be spilled on this earth shaking ground

Yes then, I turned away with this smile on my face

With this sin in my heart tried to bury Your grace

And then alone in the night, I still called out for You

So ashamed of my life, my life, my life

But You love me anyway

Oh, God… how you love me

You love me anyway

It’s like nothing in life that I’ve ever known

You love me anyway

Oh Lord, how You love me

May the goodness of Friday not be lost on you today.

The transformer will follow in a later post. This needs to stand alone.
