Fri, Mar 29 2013Ye Yahova ... Tune Mujse,
Jaan Se Jyadha Pyar kiya ..
Jesus performed miracle at a wedding at Cana,
gives sight to the blind,
heals the leaper,
cast out demons,
raise up the dead,
heals the bleeding woman and a woman from persecution,
Preaches peace and eternal everlasting life and Gods grace!
EVERY THING for others but denies for HIMSELF!
He knew purpose of his life in this world!
Jesus pleads before the heavenly father.. that the people who crucifies him are innocents!
Father forgive them ...
