We will overcome....

Today's an exciting day for me. I have to opportunity to donate blood for the first time! I'll admit I'm a bit nervous because my blood pressure drops a ton after having blood drawn, so I'll be dizzy and might pass out (which I also find kinda hilarious!) So anyway, that's what's been on my mind.

They always tell you that you're giving your blood to save a life, which is true. The blood I'm donating today could SAVE A LIFE!!! How cool is that?! So I was thinking, I get to save 1 life with my O+ (or so I think) blood. But Jesus, Jesus saved ALL of humanity by His blood. Think of that. That is absolutely amazing. He gave His blood and His life to save EVERYONE and all He asks in return is that we BELIEVE and LOVE Him, that's it....no strings attached. Now that is pretty amazing!

Just thinking about that got me thinking of 2 songs, I'll share one with you guys:


I love the song and the video! God took our sins and our insecurities and sent His son to take away all of that. So just like someone in the world may overcome death because of my blood, we can all overcome our sins and insecurities by Jesus' blood!

That's just my thoughts for the day! Think about it. It's pretty amazing!
