the beauty of grace:)

i've been playing this song on repeat this week. this is my cry to the Lord. i feel like sometimes i am so bad at being aware of what my life looks like to the people around me. i want this to be my plea. i have for sure not been super loving lately. there is no excuse for that. so, this is what is on my heart. His grace is amazing. i would have given up on me forever ago. i love the relient k song lyric that says, "the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair" :)

A life you cannot define

A purpose that's benign
They need to see and believe
Be lead to the rugged tree

The one on which He cried
not for His pain but for our debt
The very same tree that He conquered death
It was an unfair deal on the part of Christ
He got my sin I got eternal life

Make me the breath of God
And I'll show them the One
that means the most to me
They'll see the face of love
Be touched by the very One
that died upon the tree
Oh, Make me the breath of God
And I'll show them the One
that means the most to me
They'll see the face of love
Be touched by the very One
that died upon the tree
