“Perhaps
the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other, when we don’t
judge or categorize someone else, when we simply give each other the
benefit of the doubt or remain quiet. Charity is accepting someone’s
differences, weaknesses, and shortcomings; having patience with someone
who has let us down; or resisting the impulse to become offended when
someone doesn’t handle something the way we might have hoped. Charity is
refusing to take advantage of another’s weakness and being willing to
forgive someone who has hurt us. Charity is expecting the best of each
other.”

Caring not my Lord was crucified
Knowing not it was for me He died
On Calvary...
Mercy there was great and grace was free,
Pardon there was multiplied to me,
There my burdened soul found liberty
At Calvary
By God's Word at last my sin I learned,
Then I trembled at the law I'd spurned,
Till my guilty soul imploring turned,
To Calvary...
Now I've giv'n to Jesus ev'rything,
Now I gladly own Him as my King,
Now my raptured soul can only sing,
Of Calvary...
O the love that drew salvation's plan!
O the grace that brought it down to man!
O the mighty gulf that god did span
At Calvary...
WOW! Thanks, Al!
