What i've come to realise up until this very point of reference - 3:09pm on Good friday, 2007 (how fitting) - is that Grace = Complete.

That one way or another, grace comes full circle, if it already hasn't.

2 Corinthians 12:9 says "My Grace is sufficient for you, for my power is

made perfect in your weakness".. without God, what completes us?

And even the apostle Paul says "By the Grace of God, I am what I am..." 1Cor 15:10.. Again what really would become of us without His love and grace?

And without the the Lords grace, what would become of us? what would become of so many believers around the world?

[But the Father, in His love for us, seeing that we could not meet His standards, sent His Son to bear our penalty so that we "might be made the righteousness of God in Him." (2 Cor. 5:21)]

If it wasn't Gods grace, we wouldn't have a chance of being in eternity with our Father in heaven. It is by His grace that Jesus was sent from above to die on the cross to be an atonement for our sins.

The Word says that "Love covers a multitude of Sins" ...With His Love comes His Grace. If it wasnt for God's grace upon our lives, we'd still be broken and wouldn't have a chance to be made whole..ever. We wouldn't have a chance to be united with our Father.. Our relationship with God wouldn't be restored..for what separates us from our Father? Sin. and what erases that? Forgiveness.. through the cross...

GODS EVERLASTING LOVE. GODS GRACE.

I've heard. Ive seen. And i've been touched. As i've encountered countless stories of peoples lives being restored. Despite past mistakes. Past sins. Hurt. Injustice.. And what seemingly on the outside looks like defeat, was actually a victory in disguise with the hope that we'd learn and become more compassionate. more empathetic. more loving. more merciful and more gracious towards one another. towards all creation. Regardless.

I dont profess to be a bible scholar or a theologian. I do profess to being someone who yes, has grown up to be a Christian all her life, but i tell u this truth that so many times i wanted to give up and turn away koz i thought it wouldve been alot easier. But when u know the truth, and when Gods grace has been clearly displayed in and around your life, how could i now say that God isnt good? like paul, By His grace, i am what i am.

Christianity also isn't about emotions. It's not about denominations. It isnt about religious facts. It's about a personal relationship with Christ. Anyone can read the bible and still not believe. It's about a personal revelation. No one can force anything on us. God won't even force His love on us, as mighty as as He is. Dont look to others to decide, otherwise you'll find you'll constantly be disappointed, but that's cool, koz we as humans, will always fall short of His Glory. Its a fact. No emotional rollercoaster can change the truth displayed in His word. nothing more, nothing less.

Take a step into the bright side. the right side.

Know your salvation.

Know His Love.

Know His grace.

I mean, You can always turn back, no probs, no questions asked. guaranteed.

But remember, love conquers all.

And warning: Grace comes full circle.

(And they're not cliche's)

Happy Easter y'all.
