Before U were thought of or time had begun,
God stuck U in the name of His Son.
And each time U pray, you'll see it's true,
You can't spell out JesUs and not include U.
You're a pretty big part of His wonderful name,
For U, He was born; that's why He came.
And His great love for U is the reason He died.
It even takes U to spell crUcified.
Isn't it thrilling and splendidly grand
He rose from the dead, with U in His plan?
The stones split away, the gold trUmpet blew,
and this word resUrrection is spelled with a U.
When JesUs left earth at His Upward ascension,
He felt there was one thing He just had to mention.
"Go into the world and tell them it's true
That I love them all - Just like I love U."
So many great people are spelled with a U,
Don't they have a right to know JesUs too?
It all depends now on what U will do,
He'd like them to know,
But it all starts with U.
God stuck U in the name of His Son.

What is Holy Week?
Holy Week is the last week of Jesus Christ before He died for us in the cross and save us from our sins, the week immediately preceding Easter or His Resurrection. It is observed in many Christians as a time to commemorate and enact the suffering (Passion) and death of Jesus through various observances and services of worship.
Significance:
Jesus Christ died for us to save us from all our sins, wether from past, present or future since the time God saved us we are sealed and cleansed from sins.
"And if without the shedding of blood of Jesus Christ there is no salvation."
Should we commemorate or celebrate this event?
Jesus Christ have died for us to save us from eternal death and gave us new life, He wants us to be happy, so in my opinion we can commemorate once, and then we should've celebrate everyday of our lives.
Why would we celebrate?
Though it is a hard time for Jesus Christ, for all is sacrifices and pains, all he wants is to save us, we should commemorate once for God have suffered on the cross but then we should celebrate not only on HolyWeek but everyday of our lives, to thank God for saving us.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, that whose whoever belive in him should not perish but have everlasting life"
So does that mean if I accept Christ as my savior and God, I will have everlasting life even though I make sins over and over again?
Duh, When you accept Christ as your personal Savior and God, we have also to live on the way God wanted us, like doing good things, selfless acts, service etc.,But because we are not perfect sometimes we make mistakes or sins, that's the time you ask God sincerely forgiveness, I mean "SINCERELY" meaning you would heartily confess about your sin and try not to do it again.
