When you wake up from a
night's sleep,
God's Grace waits to be
part of your day,
To hear you say little more
than:
"Good Morning, Lord!"
When you rise from your now
ruffled bed,
God's Grace is His own hand
so extended
For you to take in yours
and ask:
"Where to today, Lord?"
When you see Jesus sitting
on your couch,
God's Grace sits with His
Bible wide open,
Gesturing to come sit, saying:
"This is the Word of God."
When the Holy Spirit again
fills your soul,
God's Grace stands you up
on your feet,
Pointing you to the door,
saying:
"Greet all with a holy kiss!"
When you drive into the teeth
of the day,
God's Grace, like a river
headlong rushing,
Carries you in His arms,
promising:
"I am always with you."
When God's work for the day
is complete,
God's Grace welcomes you
back home,
With arms ready to hug,
saying:
"Well done, my child."
And when your head falls
upon your pillow,
God's Grace gently closes
your tired eyes,
And whispers in your ear:
"Rest, we've got a big day
tomorrow."
*God's
grace is a spiritual free gift from
God Himself, often described
in expressions
like "unmerited favor" and
"undeserved kind-
ness." It is essentially
His love and mercy
and goodness and kindness
all wrapped toget-
her.
None of us can earn it, but
we all have the opportunity to receive it. He pours it all
around us all day every
day. He rains it
down over us like a constant
warming and
refreshing Spring shower.
God's Grace is lit-
erally every spiritual blessing. |
