Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Grace

My heart is so proud.

My mind is so unfocused.

I see the things You do through me as great things I have done.

"Sometimes we, humans, overlook things that God has provided and often get stubborn when we had everything. Sometimes we become unthankful when we are in the state of happiness and just enjoy the moment. We often own the credits, become proud and full of ourselves."

And now You gently break me, then lovingly You take me

And hold me as my father and mold me as my maker.

"Once you become a child of God, you will never be out of His sight. Though you are given freedom to choose which path to take but He will do wonderful things just for us to be reunited. That is an everlasting love of a Father, it's overflowing. "

I ask you: "How many times will you pick me up,

When I keep on letting you down?

And each time I will fall short of Your glory,

How far will forgiveness abound?"

And You answer: " My child, I love you.

And as long as you're seeking My face,

You'll walk in the power of My daily sufficient grace."

"The evil wants to trip you up and cause you to fall. Sin hinders our relationship with God and satan would love to keep you in a constant condition of being out of fellowship with God."

At times I may grow weak and feel a bit discouraged,

Knowing that someone, somewhere could do a better job.

For who am I to serve You? I know I don't deserve You.

And that's the part that burns in my heart and keeps me hanging on.

"Don't be discouraged because you cannot do much for God. It's not our ability but our availability that's important. Give what you are to Christ."

I ask you: "How many times will you pick me up,

When I keep on letting you down?

And each time I will fall short of Your glory,

How far will forgiveness abound?"

And You answer: " My child, I love you.

And as long as you're seeking My face,

You'll walk in the power of My daily sufficient grace."

You are so patient with me, Lord.

As I walk with You, I'm learning what Your grace really means.

The price that I could never pay was paid at Calvary.

So, instead of trying to repay You, I'm learning to simply obey You

By giving up my life to you For all that You've given to me.

"Whenever you do something that displeases the Lord, as soon as the Spirit of God has made you aware of it, make things right with God."

I ask you: "How many times will you pick me up,

When I keep on letting you down?

And each time I will fall short of Your glory,

How far will forgiveness abound?"

And You answer: " My child, I love you.

And as long as you're seeking My face,

You'll walk in the power of My daily sufficient grace."
