Lead me to the Rock... that's higher than I!

Thank you God. For being faithful, for being kind, for never-ending compassion, for unlimited grace... for Arms that's always open... Open for me to embrace, open for me to cry in, open for me to complain, open for me to rest a weary head...

Open for me to throw my messy life into...

Thank you God. More faithful than a brother, more loyal than a close friend, more generous than any benefactor in this world, Grace himself crossing path with me.

I didn't go, you came. I couldn't move, you moved to my world. It was your world actually, but I tore it apart. But you came to heal it. Because you are healing, you are salvation, you are grace. It is in your nature to bless undeserved people, it is in your nature to give sinners chances after chances, it is in your nature to favor the weak, the broken, the tax collectors- those who break your heart. And yet when they call, you always hear. And even before they call, you knock on the doors of their hearts.

Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades... never-ending, your glory, your worth, your significance goes beyond all things. Because you are the worth in everything good, you are the significance in everything that is truly significant in this world. You are truly, our all in all.

God, one life to learn one great lesson...a lesson to be continued in eternity...the lesson of Grace. That God, ultimately, is Grace and Truth. And that forms the basis for every other lesson in this life, and the next- that all worth comes from this God. And everything that is good. Because He is Good.  It's impossible to know grace without knowing truth, and it's impossible to know truth, without knowing grace.

When I knew who I am, I also know my only hope is God. So, lead me to the Rock that is higher than I... lead me to Christ...I need Him. My life is hidden in Him. It is no longer I that lives, but Christ that lives in me. I accomplish nothing, I can accomplish nothing apart from Him... I am dead...can the dead walk? Can he talk? Can he live? No, I walk in faith- which means I live out of the GRACE of God.

So, at the end of the day, the only lesson we must learn through life, is "Ask in faith, and you shall receive in Grace." You receive God himself.

"Unto US a child is born, Unto US a Son is given..."
