There is no shame
No pointing fingers
There is no blame
What happened yesterday…has disappeared
The dirt has washed away
And now it's clear
There's only grace
There's only love
There's only mercy and believe me it's enough
Your sins are gone
Without a trace
And there's nothing left now
There's only grace
You're starting over now
Under the sun
You're stepping forward now
A new life has begun
Your new life has begun
And if you should fall again
Get back up, get back up
Reach out and take my hand
Get back up, get back up
Get back up again
Ohh…get…back…up…again…
There's nothing left now
There’s only grace
Part of a song by: Matthew West
A new song that I absolutely love - people always say don't look back or faith doesn't look back it looks up or you can't live in the past. Now all of this is true, but I say take a minute to look back - I do, I look back and I see the pain, the heartache, the tears, the sadness, I see all the things I was and had before Jesus took control of my life. If you've done things you regret or things you're ashamed of then you are human, but once yesterday is gone the memory of your sins are gone too. God loves you and he forgives you and he never remembers them again. You don't have to beat yourself up over and over again for your mistakes. That's just what they are - mistakes that you can't erase, but you can learn from. His grace will always be enough. I remember where God brought me from, I remember who and what I was before he came into my life. I may not know where I am going, but I sure know where I've been and if it hadn't been for God's good grace, I wouldn't have survived many of the battles I've faced in this life. So today take your place, dust it off, say I'm sorry, accept his forgiveness and his love, and take a step. No more guilt from the pain of the past, we are FORGIVEN and GRACE is left. Prayers are with you yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Psalms 103:12 - As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
Isaiah 43:25 - I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for mine own sake; and will not remember thy sins.
Hebrews 8:12 - For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
And remember
YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ON THIS SINGLE PARENT JOURNEY!!
God Bless You!!
