His Grace

Well, the Cantata/play is over and my focus this morning is on my Bible study that will start back up in January, just a few weeks away. I have been working on lesson 5 which is "Grace, God's provision for every need" and it is blessing my heart! I want you to read a passage from the book that says it so clearly.

"Our situation was truly desperate. We had no hope....no possibility of overcoming sin's dominion on our own. No power to initiate our own salvation. No potential of ever having a right relationship with God. We could not do anything to change or improve our situation. If our sinful condition had made us only sick or weak, we might have entertained hopes of getting better. BUT we weren't sick; we were dead. Someone had to infuse life into us. Someone did."

That is if you are redeemed. If you have accepted Christ you have been made alive. You see God didn't come to make bad people good....he came to make dead people alive! If you haven't accepted his extravagant gift of grace and love.....what are you waiting for? Honestly, what? Do you not want to go to heaven? Do you not want to be forgiven? Do you not want peace? Do you not want joy that springs up from deep within? Do you not want a God who is able to do ANYTHING??!! He did for us what we could NOT do for ourselves! There is a line in my study that says "...our eternal soul sat on death row. But where there is God there is grace, and where there is grace there is pardon." Thank you Jesus!!! His word tells us that he doesn't want anyone to perish. But the truth is, there will be those who will reject Him and be condemned to hell for all eternity. It is man's choice...his free will to choose God and Grace or choose self and condemnation. The word also tells us that we are not promised tomorrow. Choose Jesus today. Start living today. Start walking as a child of God today. And thank Jesus for all he's done.

These are the lyrics to a song our choir does and it is my heart's cry this morning.


Thank you for the cross Lord
Thank you for the price you paid
Bearing all my sin and shame
In love you came
And gave amazing Grace!

Thank you for this love Lord
Thank you for the nail pierced hands
Wash me in your cleansing flow, now all I know
Is your forgiveness and embrace

Worthy is the Lamb!
Seated on the throne
Crown you now with many crowns
You reign victorious!!!
High and lifted up
Jesus son of God
The darling of heaven crucified...

Worthy is the lamb
Worthy is the lamb
Worthy is the lamb!



Oh thank you for Grace Lord! I KNOW I don't deserve it but if I did.....it wouldn't be grace.

Maybe we all should take some time to thank our Father for grace....just let him know we are truly thankful!
