These words graced my Facebook page this week and I had to share.

“I am not what I ought to be.  I am not what I want to be.  I am not what I hope to be.  But still, I am not what I used to be. And by the grace of God, I am what I am.” John Newton(1725-1807).

John is probably known best for his hymn “Amazing Grace”.

I thank God this thanksgiving for showing me over and over about His Grace!

If you are looking for a great to give this Christmas season- I recommend Grace for the Moment a daily devotional book by Max Lucado.  Totally a inspiration and beautifully bound.

How has God’s bountiful grace affected you today?
