That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.
The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.
When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

"But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me." 2 Corinthians 12:9
Grace was not personified for no reason.
Living, Alive.
Grace is standing at the door, knocking.
Would you let Grace in?
Grace doesn't need your money.
Just your faith that He will deliver.
How precious did that Grace appear.. the hour I first believed.

Thanks to everyone who tagged me, who emailed me, who comforted me when I was hurting, who made me realise that there is so much love in the world.
Thank God for family and friends.
Really, thank God.
When He brings you downhill, He's just waiting at the foot of the hill, for you to fully come to Him when you're afraid, when you're hurting, when you're too tired to carry on..
To bring you uphill again.
Because He'll never forsake you at your lowest period, (Joshua 1:5, Deuteronomy 31:6)
He'll never let you be tempted beyond what you can bear, (1 Corinthians 10:13)
And He'll always always always love you. (Psalm 57:10, John 3:16, 1 John 3:1)
He promised.
And He doesn't lie.
(:
Only my Lord
Jesus
can do that.
:D
Footnote: Grace! I got your letter! Hahaha gorgeous homemade envelope, dear! Don't worry about it! What's inside is the thing that matters! (: Love received!
With lots and lots and lots of thanksgiving,
♥, char
