Grace.

Amazing Grace.

Unmerited. Undeserved.

Freely given.

From God to me.

Thanking God for His mercy and grace.

It never gets old.

It still amazes me after all these years.

Your Grace Still Amazes Me

Lyrics by Phillips, Craig and Dean

(Video of this song)

My faithful Father, Enduring Friend
Your tender mercy is like a river with no end
It overwhelms me covers my sin
each time I come into Your presence I stand in wonder once again

(chorus)
Your grace still amazes me
Your love is still a mystery
each day I fall on my knees
’cause Your grace still amazes me
Your grace still amazes me

Oh patient Savior, You make me whole
You are the author and the healer of my soul
what can I give You Lord what can I say
I know there’s no way to repay You only to offer You my praise

(chorus)
Your grace still amazes me
Your love is still a mystery
each day I fall on my knees
cause Your grace still amazes me
Your grace still amazes me

It’s deeper, It’s wider, It’s stronger, It’s higher
It’s deeper, It’s wider, It’s stronger, It’s higher
than anything my eyes can see

Your grace still amazes me
Your love is still a mystery
each day I fall on my kness
cause Your grace still amazes me
Your grace still amazes me

Thank you Father for…

*beautiful sunsets

*crumbs on the counter

*left over pizza in the fridge

*email from family

*sharing a joke with my husband

*hugs

*cat fur on the couch

*toothpaste scuzz on the bathroom sink

*clean clothes

*a fresh start to a new week

I’m thankful today for all things, big and small. Something I learned this week….even the little things that I think are annoying are things to be thankful for…there are people that would trade places with me in a heartbeat. (scuzzy sinks and cat fur included)

Count your blessings…one by one?
