GOD'S TIRELESS OFFER OF GRACE

GOD'S TIRELESS OFFER OF GRACE
God loves us FREELY=and
He lets us CHOOSE FREELY
Whether we will
LOVE him back=or not
Sometimes we choose WORLDLY WAYS
Over God's ways=yet he
NEVER gives up on us
"I will LOVE HIM FREELY"                                                                                                                Hosea 14:5
Sometimes we turn away
From God=sometimes
We try to HIDE from God
But God can always SEE US
And he always loves us
And he is always watching for us
WAITING for us
With his arms OPENED WIDE
GOD'S tireless offer of GRACE
To us
"Out of the fullness
We have all
RECEIVED GRACE
In place of GRACE
Already given"                                                                                                                              John 1:16
"No!  We believe it is
Through the GRACE
Of our Lord Jesus Christ
That we are saved
Just as they are"                                                                                                                                Acts 15:11
"In him
We have redemption
Through his blood
The forgiveness of sins
In accordance
With the riches
Of GOD'S GRACE........"                                                                                                                   Ephesians 1:7
GOD LOVES US
Even when
We reject him
He brings us
To himself
EVEN when we don't respond
He is with us
Even when we
Are NOT aware
Of HIM being with us
That is what GRACE IS
It is the sorrow
That we feel
When we sin
It is OUR DESIRE for HEALING
Our desire
To FEEL GOD'S LOVE
And feel WHOLE once again
"For they are life
To those
Who stand firm
And health
To one's WHOLE BODY"                                                                                                            Proverbs 4:22
"For I have not hesitated
To proclaim to you
The WHOLE WILL of God"                                                                                                       Acts 20:27
"For whoever
Keeps the WHOLE LAW
And yet stumbles
At just one point
Is guilty of
Breaking all of it"                                                                                                                           James 2:10
GRACE is God's TIMELESS
OFFER of our emptiness
And no matter
How empty we
May feel
God BESTOWS GRACE UPON GRACE
On us
And he keeps
REACHING OUT for us
GOD LOVE US FREELY
And GIVES HIS GRACE FREELY
Dear Lord=dear LOVING GOD
Please HELP US
Keep our hearts
OPEN to you
To RECEIVE=YOUR GRACE
In Jesus' name and in the name of our GRACE-FILLED GOD
