For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.



Wow, haven't posted anything here in ages. I'm definitely not the best blogger, haha. Lots of stuf has happened since the last time I wrote. I'm now at the beginning of my second semester at Calvary Chapel Bible College in York, and the Lord is already teaching me so much. This weekend I got to experience on a deeper level of the Lord's grace and love. It's so real to me right now. I was humbled before Him, ripped of my pride and just receiving grace even though I know I'm never gonna be worthy for it. Psalm 103:11-14 says:  

For as the heavens are high above the earth. So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him. As far as the east is from the west, So far has he removed our transgressions from us. As a father who pities his children, So the LORD pities those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust.

He really loves us so much, and there is nothing that can separate you from Him, nothing that He can't handle. When we make mistakes, He is always ready to forgive, and not to condemn us. He loves us, and everytime we fall, he sees us as these little children who are learning to walk. With His blood He has made us clean! His love for us is amazing, and if you haven't received His love and mercy into your heart, I want to encourage you to do so! It doesn't matter who we are, or what we've done, because once we turn to Him, our past is forgotten and we step into new life, and there is nothing that compares to that joy. The joy of knowing your Saviour.

Oh, and after days of biting cold in the city of York, it seems as spring is on it's way! I can't wait!
