The Ultimate Valentine

For God so loved the world, He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:16-17

I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain

Just to be with the one he loves
How many times has he broken that promise-
It has never been done
I've never climbed the highest mountain
But I walked the hill of Calvary

Chorus:
Just to be with you, I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you, I'd give everything
I would give my life away

I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean
Just to be with the one he loves
But all of those dreams are an empty emotion
It can never be done
I've never swam the deepest ocean
But I walked upon the raging sea

I know that you don't understand
the fullness of My love
How I died upon the cross for your sins
And I know that you don't realize
how much that I gave you
But I promise, I would do it all again

Just to be with you, I've done everything
There's no price I did not pay
Just to be with you, I gave everything
Yes, I gave my life away

Me too! I love Third Day in general. I have the whole album "Wherever You Are" on my MP3 player. It's such a good message of the Hope we have in Christ, even though life is so terribly hard alot of the time.
Happy Valentine's Day!

Oh...and thank you for the email...I'm going to get back to you on that in more detail. It was an INCREDIBLE encouragement to me that day. I printed it off and read it about 20 times!

Here's to a God who is a passionate lover. How great is it that He sent snow as a "present" for today!
