More about Grace.

I have more lofty ideals than friends. I have more good intentions than blog ideas. I think positive thoughts, and I dream of a brighter future. I'm proud of my heritage and long for greatness in my line. I want to change the world, but can't even change my diet.
I mess up more than a potty training toddler. I am a complete and utter failure in the eyes of the world. I have a job that pays $6 an hour (for up to 8 hours a week) and no money. I have had one actual relationship that I care to mention. I forgive less often than I get a haircut.
And somehow, God's Grace prevails. I don't get it, I can't comprehend it, and I will never understand why; but God offers Grace to me daily. When I sin, and I do so in a most copius fashion, God is always right there offering me Grace. When I mess up, and it happens more often than delayed flights, God always takes me back. I don't know how those who still try and follow the law do it. What do they have to turn to when they mess up daily? How can they live with themselves without the amazing power of Grace?
