Dear Friends,
I hope you have had a safe, healthy and blessed week!
Since we have been
looking at the verses and meaning of The Old Rugged Cross, I thought I would find the history behind the hymn. A hymn, a song of the
faith from log ago, always has a deeper meaning to me when I know what inspired the author to wrote it and how it impacted
his life.
Below is the story behind The Old Rugged Cross. It gives serious food for
thought regarding the meaning of the Cross, so please think about it as you
read.
On another note, I am also including a link petitioning again for the
release of Pastor Saeed and other Americans who are imprisoned in Iran. Please
sign and pass along! http://aclj.org/
There is
a article about the talks w/ Iran and how it affects Pastor Saeed, a letter from
his wife on the main screen and the petition is on the right side of the screen
if you scroll down a bit. He is a brother in Christ, so please stand with
him. (Scripture link, Devot. below)
