Boldly Proclaiming What Is True!

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea:
A great High Priest, whose name is Love, 
Who ever lives and pleads for me.

My name is graven on His hands, 
My name is written on His heart; 
I know that while in heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart
No tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair, 
And tells me of the guilt within, 
Upward I look, and see Him there
Who made an end to all my sin.

Because the sinless Savior died, 
My sinful soul is counted free; 
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me
To look on Him and pardon me

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise the One, 
Risen Son of God!

Happy Birthday My Love

Two years ago today, my sneaky little husband proposed to me in the midst of a surprise birthday party that I could have sworn that I planned. He's so smart. Happy Birthday my dear, sorry I got engaged in jeggings :) You're the greatest.

Truth From My Text Book.

I ran across this quote in my text book. I love it and I pray to continue to think more and more like this. After all, He loved me and died for me although I was and still am a sinner. I want to love like that.

"Love every man in spite of his falling into sin. Never mind the sins, but remember that the foundation of man is the same- the image of God." - John of Kronstadt

A Little Nugget on Deaf Culture

Obviously I'm a sucker for Sign Language. I love everything about it and I adore the people who use it.  Deaf culture is such a wonderful thing to be educated on. SO many hearing people have never been exposed to deaf people, let alone deaf culture. I found this lovely video of a man willing to do a presentation on the deaf world. It's long but if you find yourself interested, it's worth educating yourself :)
