I Dreamed a Dream

This is quite inspiring. The entire clip is about 7 minutes long. It will give you goose bumps.

Les Miserables I Dreamed a Dream Lyrics:
There was a time, when men were kind
And their voices were soft
And their words were inviting
There was a time, when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting
There was a time it all went wrong

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving

Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untested

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame

He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came

And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed

Grace

A little Good Friday reflection.

In John 19:30, Jesus utters these final words, “It is finished” (Grk. Tetelestai – [it is] paid in full.) Tetelestai is the same word that was written on first century tax receipts that had been paid in full.

My sin has been fully paid. Jesus on the cross has fulfilled the wrath of God.

I recently ran across this wonderful definition of Grace:
When God could have condemned all, He chose to save some for His glory.
