This man's story is amazing! Take a moment to listen to Dennis Guglielmetti, who was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease in 2009. Formerly the Vice President of Training and Development at Westfield Group in Simi Valley, CA.

Watch the 5 minute clip on youtube:

I stumbled across it while listening to Francis Chan's sermon: "Making Sense of your Life" 1/23/11

It's stories like these that really put life into perspective... Wow!

how deep

How Deep the Father's Love for Us
written by Stuart Townend

E F#m G#m A
How deep the Father's love for us
E/G# C#m B
How vast beyond all measure
E F#m G#m A
That He would give His only Son
E/B B E
To make a wretch His treasure

E/G# C#m B A
How great the pain of searing loss
E/G# C#m B
The Father turns His face away
E F#m G#m A
As wounds which mar the chosen One
E/B B E
Bring many sons to glory

Behold the Man upon a cross
My guilt upon His shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished

I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no powr's, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
