He Went Willingly.

i've been putting this post off all week long! all week! uhh. better do it now? here goes...
betcha i won't make it thru this with out crying...we'll see!!

"Jesus climbed the hill. To the garden still. His steps were heavy and slow. All but a prayer took Him there to a place only He could go.
Gethsemane! Jesus loves me! So He went willingly...to Gethsemane.
While his friend's were asleep, He fought to keep His promise made long ago...
Gethsemane!! Jesus loves me. So He went willingly, to Gethsemane. To Gethsemane."

i hope you've heard that song...if not-your missin out! its the best. okay, so i forgot a lot of it...but i covered the basics.

Its pretty hard to say your perfect. I don't think He would admit to being perfect. While everyone mocked Him, spat at Him, and spoke disrespectfully to Him, He didn't yell at them, or curse. He was a very reverent soul.

I love this picture. I don't necessarily love sheep, but He does and did.
~~~~
My Savior. He lives.

One thing I admire so dearly about Him, is that He loved kids. Every story in the bible, He is caring, loving, healing, talking, and playing with children. He never got impatient with them, He just understood. Understood everything.
~~~~
Whenever I see Him kneeling in the Garden of Gethsemane, I want to cry. Of all the bad things I've done; Jesus has bled from every pore of His body for me. For me! Knowing that I'm not perfect, and everything I do that isn't right...I know He's hurting. Bleeding. For me.

The biggest blessing I think He has ever given me, is my family. My family is the best. No questions about it. Thee best. I could not in any way, imagine my life without these lovlies. I will do whatever it takes to be with them again. I don't know how I can thank Him, because these guys are my pride and joy. I love them. Why did He give me such an awesome mom, a strong..hard working dad, two tough amazing brothers, two happy beautiful sisters, one precious adorable niece, two brother-in-laws that make my sister's happy? Because He loves me.

"I know that my Redeemer lives. What comfort this sweet sentence gives. He lives, He lives who once was dead. He lives my ever living head. He lives to grant me rich supply."
He Lives. He loves me.

Reflecting back to that song, it states "Jesus loves me, so he went willingly...to Gethsemane."
In my opinion, its saying "He knew it was going to be painful bleeding in the Garden of Gethsemane from every pore in His body, but He went willingly because He loves me."

just to report...no. no i did not make it thru this without crying. i got to the song gethsemane and started bawling. by the time i reached "my family" section...i couldn't contain my self. wow. i sure love them..
