Living the message called grace

(2007 my son Nathen in the trenches

Mama Yolis House)

(2010 Mama Yolis House)

How can we

as a church

"do and be"

without this Message called grace?

(Little G on the bus with new mama and Church family headed to Mama Yolis house)

Is there a fear in the Church that if grace and mercy are preached

we will fall into a place of complacency?

No need to help, work, love others till it hurts?

Even if it costs me something?

I dont want to think so.

Why has my parched soul longed for this message?

Instead of this bondage and fear....

pushing

until heaps of brokenness

pain and inadequacy

eating the joy

covering our mouths

and ears

to the laughter.......

The song I AM sings over us?

If we arent living the message of grace and mercy...

what is left???

when she cant get out of bed in the morning

because "You arent going to do it right"

is loudest

what is there to show for the cross?

The price that was paid?

It was all about Love......

unmerited favor

grace

and mercy,

For when I have seen too much

loved so hard......

defeated perfectionist

trying to make sense of it all.

Walking the road to recovery.....

If you want to read more

plus this

and more

these ladies really understand.

Under His Wings,
