His Grace


I just finished reading the book Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers and it was a beautiful story based off the book of Hosea that shows God's grace and the beautiful journey we take to receive and know it. I am amazed by the Lord's grace... how no matter what we do, He just longs for us to turn back to Him and when we do come to Him we aren't ashamed, or guilty...we are welcomed and loved. God is so thankful that we are home, He doesn't even care what we did or why we did it... He is just thankful we are back and we are His, He loves that we come to Him because we need Him and we love Him.

The Lord's grace and love amazes me and I am so thankful that I will never fully comprehend or understand it. I love the mystery that is in Christ Jesus, that I can unravel more and more as I continue to pursue and have a relationship with Him. Love is what ties everything together in perfect unity, we must hold fast to it, fight for it, cling to it, share it, give it, be it, know it, and live it. We need to stand against darkness, and love.


"Love the Lord your God, and love one another. Love one another as He loves. Love with strength and purpose and passion and no matter what comes against you. Don't weaken. Stand against the darkness, and love. That's the way back into Eden. That's the way back to life."
~Francine Rivers (Redeeming Love)
