My Saturday early morning walk with my two fur-friends before the blistering heat made its way to us, gave me these two photo opts. I saw this beautiful Grace Church in front of me and the street sign read: \u201cGrace Street\u201d. We turned east and ran into this morning glory of God\u2019s grace shining through to us. My \u201cinside voice\u201d was singing Mercy Me\u2019s song, \u201cGrace Got You\u201d that put a skip to the beat in my feet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever met those who
Keep humming when the song’s through?
It’s like they’re living life to
A whole different tune.
And have you ever met those that
keep hoping when it’s hopeless?
It’s like they figured out \/ what the rest haven’t yet.
The second when you realize \/ what you have inside
It’s only just a matter of time \/ ’til you
Chorus:
Sing, so the back row hears you
Glide, ’cause walking just won’t do
Dance, you don’t have to know how to
Ever since, ever since grace got you
Laugh, ’til your whole side’s hurting
Smile like you just got away with something
Why? ‘Cause you just got away with something
Ever since, ever since grace got you<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when you’re standing in the rain again
You might as well be dancing
Why? ‘Cause there ain’t no storm that
Can change how this ends
So, next time when you feel blue \/ Don’t let that smile leave you
Why? ‘Cause you have every reason just to\u2026.sing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I live in God\u2019s grace. I just know it. We all do! No matter what kind of mistake we make, there is always a solution for restitution. It comes in the form of grace. God\u2019s grace that heals and restores. He exchanges our tarnished slate, for a fresh, clean slate so we can begin again. Mistakes are inevitable, but the good news, as God\u2019s repentant kids, all our mistakes are forgivable. That kind of grace is so amazing, God can even turn those mistakes to something good. Romans 8:28 \u201cAll things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purposes.\u201d Most importantly, it reminds me that my God is bigger than my faults and weaknesses and He can turn anything around for His glory!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe all kinds of stuff is being thrown at you — like the media or your co-workers or your friends or family seem just too much to handle and it seems there\u2019s no hope for tomorrow. I have good news for you. You are not alone. The ONE who created you and loves you and wants your life to be full of joy, peace and happiness\u2026LIVES! And because He lives, your life is worth living. His grace will carry you through! Go ahead \u2014 tell tomorrow \u2014 \u201cI\u2019m alive. I live in the abundance of God\u2019s grace and that grace HAS GOT ME!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
