This morning {if I can get this published before midnight} our worship leader played this short video before we began our Sunday morning worship. This is a song that gets me every.single.time. Now that I have seen the video on how and why the song was written, I know why it gets me. Because it speaks directly to my brokenness.
I'm a sinner. I'm broken. I daily seek forgiveness. I'm nowhere near perfect. I make many mistakes. I constantly let others down. I don't deserve His grace and mercy.
Watch this. It's a short 10 minutes out of your day...you'll spend more time aimlessly scrolling through Facebook. Chances are you'll feel blessed at the end of the 10 minutes. Or, you'll be a hot mess from all of the tears. Either way, watch this.
This morning at church, as I song this song, I was overtaken with emotion more than once. I had to take a deep breath before continuing to sing. It's unfathomable, this side of Heaven, just how He can love a sinner like me, a girl so broken. But, when I listen to this song, I'm reminded that Jesus loves me, even when I sin. He loves me in my brokenness. He is an all-forgiving God. Only He is perfect, yet He loves me still. He loves me enough to let me learn from my mistakes. Even though I let Him down, He still loves me. I DON'T, we DON'T, deserve His grace and mercy, let He loves us enough to consistently give it to us.
Goodness, I haven't spoke out about Jesus on this space in quite some time. Yet, today I was moved to share Him with you. I pray you know Him. I pray, if you don't know Him, that you'll seek Him out. Want to know more, but have no one to ask? Ask me. If I don't know the answer, I'll ask.
How was your Sunday? I'd love to hear how you spent your day. Tell me in the comments!
