"When I see the Blood..."

So...school haha What can one say about starting something new?? For me I feel like I am taking another step towards my future, not knowing where it will lead...but that's called Faith, right?? It has definitely been a challenge so far & I PRAISE God for this challenge. I hope it continues to be challenging no matter what position of a CST (Certified Surgical Technician) I might have someday. This is just another journey, another path I am blessed to walk down with my Lord. 

"When I see the blood, when I see the blood,

When I see the blood, I will pass, I will pass over you."

This is a song we sing at my church & the meaning is so powerful to me; its been on my mind and my heart but I just didn't know how to put it into words. 'When I see the blood...' To some people this is just a reference to when the Israelite children were slaves in Egypt. One night the Death Angel came and when he saw the 'blood' he passed over the house. 

"And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt." Exodus 12:13

But to me this is a promise: "When I see the Blood, I will pass over you." That blood is Jesus Christ! That precious, pure blood that was shed on Calvary hill two-thousand years ago has NOT lost its power. My Savior shed His blood to save my soul... can it be explained in any better way?? His blood is my covering, it is my protection. His blood is my Salvation; it saves me from the temptations of the devil, the pressures of this world, and His blood saves me from myself. This world has nothing for me & as I get closer to God that becomes more & more true. Jesus has kept every promise He has ever made to me...why should I go looking somewhere else or to someone else?? They make only shallow promises they can't keep. I know where I belong, & I stand firm on a solid foundation. Like a tree planted by the waters, 'I shall not be moved'. In your name Lord Jesus
