Today I’m thankful…<\/b><\/p>\n

…that at least one of my professors is totally on my side regarding my thesis.<\/p>\n

…that I have wonderful family and friends who take my side (even when I’m doing my best to self-destruct).<\/p>\n

…that I have a great high priest who lives to make intercession for me.<\/p>\n

This song was in the playlist that woke me up this morning. What a beautiful reminder of the God who, when I was His enemy, paid a terrible price to make me His friend.<\/p>\n

Before the throne of God above
\nI have a strong and perfect plea.
\nA great high Priest whose Name is Love
\nWho ever lives and pleads for me.
\nMy name is graven on His hands,
\nMy name is written on His heart.
\nI know that while in Heaven He stands
\nNo tongue can bid me thence depart.<\/p>\n

When Satan tempts me to despair
\nAnd tells me of the guilt within,
\nUpward I look and see Him there
\nWho made an end of all my sin.
\nBecause the sinless Savior died
\nMy sinful soul is counted free.
\nFor God the just is satisfied
\nTo look on Him and pardon me.<\/p>\n

Behold Him there the risen Lamb,
\nMy perfect spotless righteousness,
\nThe great unchangeable I AM,
\nThe King of glory and of grace,
\nOne in Himself I cannot die.
\nMy soul is purchased by His blood,
\nMy life is hid with Christ on high,
\nWith Christ my Savior and my God!<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thank You, Lord, for taking my part, for paying the price I couldn’t pay, for justifying this unworthy wretch! I am so in awe of the greatness of the God who would do such a thing for me.<\/p>\n
