These past few days it seems as though the message of forgiveness and grace keeps coming up... I think God is trying to say something! This morning as I checked my Twitter account, I read a song suggestion from my friend Estela: Grace by Phil Wickham. Even though this is a song that I know, that I have known, it is still new to me. I've been walking with the Lord for 14 years, nevertheless, grace is very new to me. I pray that through these lyrics, you may be drawn into grace.
God's grace has taught me that I don't have to do life on my own strength, but in His strength.
God's grace has taught me that we all fall short, therefore we must keep our eyes only on Jesus.
God's grace has taught me that my shameful scars can be a beautiful picture of His redemption.
God's grace has taught me that despite my past mistakes I can still be used by Him.
God's grace has taught me that I will continue to make mistakes, and He'll continue to pick me up.
God's grace has taught me that nothing will ever separate me from His love.
God's grace has taught me to love God, to love people and to love myself.
Grace, Phil Wickham
The sky is grey and the light is far
The sea is a rage within my heart
I turn my sight to the crashing waves
I cry in the night just to be saved
I need eyes to be my guide
I need a voice that’s louder than mine
I need hope I need You
Cause I can’t do this alone
Grace I call Your name
Oh won’t Your smile fall over me
I’m cracked and dry on hands and knees
Oh sweet grace rain down on me I need You grace
I pray for dawn a new day to live
I pray for mercy only Jesus gives
Though darkness falls and a million cry
I believe over all there’s a greater light shining for us
Come down and save me
But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

Good choice! Grace is a lesson we never stop learning. 36 years with the Lord and I still don't have it down. I read your grace lines with much interest. despite my past mistakes, I can still be used by Him. Watch it most will tell you, no way your done. God never does. Scars are beautiful to the Lord. We have so many but its the world that tells us we are ugly. Thank the Lord, He loves His bride. To Love God, we never do enough, to love people, only a few really do that with God's heart in mind, love yourself. Wow, that is a big one and yet looking in the mirror every morning, I can find many reasons not too. I see the failures in this world, how you don't measure up to what the world says you should be. The only saving grace is that I know my Lord loves me with an undying love, He came to die for me, before the world was made He thought of me and how He would make me for His glory. That makes me put back the mirror and go another day on His road. The battle never ends until the shout till He calls us home. God bless.
