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?
I love the word "grace!" I'm so thankful that God's grace is new and fresh every morning and that even when I'm way off course, God's grace catches me every time.
Nibby, this is a totally awesome post. I'm so very thankful for being able to celebrate each day and do the things I am passionate about. Thank you for sharing with us today.
