God's Grace

God's Grace...when I was saved when I was in 6th grade...I remember this book they gave me and all I remember was the word Grace. I even remember Grace? what does that mean, well...I think we are all learning everyday...but now more than ever I am learning God's Grace...leaning on God's Grace...hanging on to the hope that God's Grace will push us through.

There is this song that I had heard before "THE SADNESS" came into our lives and it There is Nothing Greater than Grace by Point of Grace...here is the chorus

There is no valley, there is no darkness
there is no sorrow greater than the grace of Jesus.
There is no moment, there is no distance,
there is no heartbreak He can't take you through.
So before you think that you're too lost to save,
Remember there is nothing greater than grace.

So let's think about the things in life that get us down:
-getting your heart broken by someone you once loved
-a friend betraying you
-a spouse leaving you
-falling out of love
-Mistakes
-MONEY
-feeling as if you have been mistreated
-feeling as if you don't belong
-Your health
-your job or lack of a job
-your anxieties
-your family or lack of
-anger so deep you don't even know where it originated from or why you are mad
-wanting something...you know you can't have
-and then it's "THE SADNESS" .....DEATH

I have used this word more recently than before...but so many of these things are CONSUMING!! It takes over your mind and then your heart. It...the things that we allow to consume us....are painful...are unimaginable at times....frustrating....and just plain WRONG....but they are what we allow them to be...CONSUMING.

STOP the madness people!!! Nothing is greater than God's Grace. There is nothing He can't get us through. There is NOTHING greater than Grace. The only thing that scares me more then anything is thinking of going without GOD'S GRACE!! How could you breath without it?

Now...I can write and believe in so many things...but I have had to fall to my knees in shear weakness from trying to withstand the pain and the burden my family carries, but God is faithful...HE carries me when I can't go no more...and gives me rest.

What do you need rest from? Anger toward someone? broken heart? loneliness? uncertainty? doubt? THE SADNESS? well...there is REST...there is a light in your darkness...it is God's Grace and all you have to do is take it.

I take hold of now...but I am not saying it is easy...it's exhausting sometimes...but again...HE NEVER FAILS...HE always provides...ALWAYS loves...is ALWAYS there and I am forever grateful

Brooklyn, I so badly wanted to see you last night in your pumpkin suit.. I so badly want to hold you and hold you up to the sky so you will laugh at me again. I know God is with you and I know that HE is with us and I promise you we are doing our best to keep looking for Rainbows for you.
