You Saw Me...

This weekend I will begin a short series on the death and resurrection of Jesus leading up to Resurrection Sunday titled, "You Saw Me..."  The inspiration for the title comes from the song of the same name, produced and performed by Hillsong Australia.  Here are the lyrics:  

Your glory fills the heavens

Your glory fills the earth

Still you chose surrender

You gave yourself for me

God of my salvation

Hope of righteousness

You paid the price for freedom

You took a lonely cross

Bless the Lord always

Bless Your holy Name

And You Saw Me

When You took a crown of thorns

And Your blood washed over me

And You loved me

Through the nails that You bore

And Your blood washes over me

Amazing like no other

Grace without an end

As Your word had promised

You died and rose again

The second and last verse will be the basis of the series beginning with "God of my Salvation" followed by, "The Lonely Cross" and finally, "Promise Fulfilled".

I love this season because it really brings to remembrance the life, sacrifice and joy that Jesus lived, suffered and endured for me to have a relationship with the Father.  I hope that as these next few weeks go by, you too will take time to reflect on the Resurrection and remember that when He took the crown of thorns and when he received the nails through His hands... He saw you!
