I have been working around the house this morning, preparing for Easter here on Sunday. Quite randomly, I popped a Nicole Nordeman cd into the player for the kids and I to listen to while we worked/played. Honestly, much of the songs were drowned out by the kids playing, the dishwasher running and the dog barking while the cd played, but ironically as I sat down near the tv to dust the entertainment center, this song called "Why" was playing. Having caught just the tail end of it, I hit repeat. As I sat there, with Ellie curled on my lap, I listened....captivated and deeply moved by the lyrics. What a crazy, God-breathed coincidence that on THIS day, Good Friday, the very day that we commemorate Christ's crucifixtion...at the same time in the morning that He hung on that cross, I just so happened to put a cd in that I haven't listened to in months...no....a year or more, and THIS particular song was one of the very few that I actually heard. Amazing. I feel compelled to share it with you today. When I searched online for the song, I found it along with this video clip from the movie The Passion. Please be aware that portions of the clip graffically depict Christ's crucifiction...just in case your little ones are nearby.

May we remember today all that Christ endured for us....

WOW!!!! Truly incredible! There are no words to describe the gratefulness I have for what the Lord has done - dying on the cross for my sins! He is an awesome God! Thanks for sharing!
I remember this song! I heard it awhile ago and had to listen to it twice before I "got it". :)
