Jesus Loves Me

Today during worship we sang the song "Lead Me to the Cross", by Hillsong. As we sang I had a vision. Jesus was on the cross covered in my sins. Not just like a weight, but like he was swimming in them. Like they had engulfed him. Then he rose and stood before me. His eyes were like piercing blue mirrors that reflected back to me all the darkest parts of me and more. They showed me his understanding and knowing of what was inside of me. They showed me how he truly felt my hurt, my sorrow, and everything. Most of all, as tears rolled down his cheeks in sync with my own, I saw his love. Pure, unconditional, unadulterated love. I saw him hold my spirit in his arms like a child. Wiping my tears and washing away the dirt stains, created by my Earthliness. It was amazing and I could see where some would think "Whatever" but this was real. God is real. I don't doubt that. It amazes me how much God loves me. I've never known love like that. Love that sees past all the shadows and grime and whatnot to the very core, the very center that is us. An us we don't fully know or understand. The us that God created.

Hillsong United - Lead Me To The Cross lyrics

Savior I come
Quiet my soul remember
Redemption's hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as loss

Chorus:
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Oh Lead me, lead me to the cross

You were as I
Tempted and tried
Human
The word became flesh
Bore my sin and death
Now you're risen
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as loss

Chorus

Bridge:
To your heart
To your heart
Lead me to your heart
Lead me to your heart
