The answer has been in front of my face all this time. I've known this, but I never realized it's implications.
He keep forgiving me, despite my mistakes and pitfalls.
Meaning I get a second chance every time.
Meaning I get a second chance every time.
EVERY time.
That means I have that many chances to keep bettering myself, that many chances to try and look more like Christ, that many chances to draw closer to the prize, that many opportunities to overcome a sinful habit, that many chances to share what I have learned, and that many chances to try even harder.
What a God.
He is so good.
What a God.
He is so good.

Your blog brings this to mind:
ReplyDeleteI’ve got this passion
It’s something I can’t describe
It’s so electric
It’s like I’ve just come alive
I feel this freedom
Now that my past is erased
I feel the healing
I found the meaning of grace
(I found grace)
If only you could see me yesterday
Who I used to be before the change
You’d see a broken heart
You’d see the battle scars
It’s funny how words can’t explain
How good it feels to finally break the chains
I’m not what I have done
I’m what I’ve overcome
I know I’ll stumble
I know I’ll still face defeat
These second chances will define me
So I’m moving forward
I’m standing on my two feet
I’ve got momentum
I’ve got someone saving me
(Got someone saving me)
I’ll make mistakes and I might fall
But I won’t break
I’ve got someone saving me
