Your Grace Still Amazes Me (Click link to listen)
This song says it all...as I sit here tonight and think on the last few years, and more recently, months, I am astounded by the grace the Father has shown me. Time and again I have failed Him...and yet He is always there for me. He never leaves me. No matter what I do or how far I stray, He is always there...
What truly amazes me is how little I deserve His love and forgiveness and tender mercies. And yet each and every day He is making them available to me. Each day he renews me. Waits for me to come to Him and once again lay my life in His hands. Every day. And every day He astounds me with His grace.
The last few days have been anything but easy and at times I have felt like nothing good would come out of the situation. How could it? But yesterday I felt peace about things for the first time and today even more so. I have no idea where God is taking me or what He's going to do with this heart of mine...but I know His grace is beyond sufficient...and He will heal my soul and renew my heart.
This is my prayer, too, for others...that they may realize that despite the fact that we are undeserving of it, God is standing waiting with hands open ready to give us the gift of His grace. It truly is deeper, wider, stronger and higher than anything our eyes can see....and yet it's right here...always. Available to us. Wow. THAT amazes me....
