I knew nothing of "grace". As a child I could never get the approval of my step dad.
When I wiped off the table...I could be sure he would find crumbs.
I lived in a "Graceless world."
I knew nothing of God's grace. I longed for love...unconditional...never ending...but
I felt alone.
I also never gave myself grace. How can you give something when you have never experienced it?
It has actually taken a life time for me to understand grace. I am still learning.
I found that "Grace" is a Person. My Savior. He gave me "grace" when I wasn't sure I could survive...
I didn't have to be "good enough." I didn't have to perform. I just had to accept.
I love grace and I love mercy. I love when someone gives me grace and shows me mercy...
Jesus doesn't care if I leave a few crumbs...or if I don't get my math right...
He loves me where I am...crumbs and all...
One time I was being hard on myself over something...
I heard Him speak to my heart..."you can't pay for this. I already have."
Oh the grace of God. I have found that the more grace I receive from The Lord...
the more grace I give myself and others...
Grace and Truth came by Jesus Christ...He is Grace....He is my Savior. Blessed be His Name
forever!!!
(Grace is undeserved favor.)
