La Pena de La Cruz




Today we went to the cross with the group from Shelby. It was a trying experience. Courtney had a little trouble with her hip but she made it. One the way down my knee hurt a little bit but not much. The view was amazing. being able to see the entire of Jinotega was wonderful. Because, sometime I leap before I think, I slipped a couple of times, Including when I was squatting taking a picture. I can be so off balance sometimes but other times I have all the balance I need. When we got down I had to go back to the hotel and grab the key for the Convention Center, where Courtney was waiting. The pants I wore got really dirty and I knew that there was no way I could get them washed at the hotel, so Courtney and I decided that we needed to hand wash our pants. So we did. And, not a bad job. At least they were clean enough to go with the Medical Group that was here.

In the photo of Courtney and me I was literally clinging/ holding on to the cross. There was enough room for my foot and that was it. So this experience brought many songs to mind but this past week I have been sining Clinging to the Cross. So here are the words if you do not know the song. Tim Hughs wrote the song.


My soul is weak my heart is numb
I cannot see
but still my hope is found in you
I'll hold on tightly, you will never let me go
For Jesus you will never fail.

My soul is weak my heart is numb
I cannot see
but still my hope is found in you
I'll hold on tightly, you will never let me go
Jesus you will never fail 2x

Chorus:
Simply to the cross I cling letting go of all earthly things,
I'm clinging to the cross
Mercy's found a way for me
Hope is here as I am free
Jesus you are all I need I'm cling to the cross

Even Darkness is as light, to you my lord
so light the way and lead me home
to that place where every tear is wiped away
For Jesus you will never fail 2x

Chorus
What a Savior, What a Story
You were crucified but now you are alive
So amazing, Such a mystory
You were crucified, but now you are alive
Chrous
