Everything changed that day.

I used to be a mess.
Left to myself, I would try to claw my way out of failures;
I felt the need to prove my worth.
I was Orphaned and lost,
Dirty and ashamed,
I struggled.
I kept fighting...and loosing.
I told myself I was too far gone - hopeless.

Before that day, my debt needed to be paid.
A Fire A sacrificial offering was needed,
A spotless lamb(sacrifice) was needed.
But because of that day, No more.
Christ lived a life no one else could,
Sinless and perfect, for me.

He willingly died for me on that day, a perfect sacrifice.
All my failures, all my sins, all my shame
Died with him on that cross
His blood covering me like a snowfall, pure and beautiful.

In spite of my failures, grace flows
Like a current under a frozen river it flows
Unstoppable.
I no longer need to impress.
I am no longer a prisoner of my own efforts.
Released from my chains, I am set free.

The debt I owe,
The punishment I deserve...that we deserve,
Has been paid in full because of the events on that day.

He died for me, and he died for you.
He conquered sin, yet was buried a criminal.
It was thought to be over.
Three days of silence…

Then that day came

He conquered death. He rose in victory.
Fully redeemed, we are brought back to life.
Made new, his endless love pours down on us.
We are set free
