From 2 Corinthians 5:17-18: “So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; look, new things have come into being! All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.”
God’s living grace
Bends earthly lives
Word’s special place
Righteousness thrives
Forgiveness gifts
Mercy for all
Spirit uplifts
One man named Saul
Undeserved grace
Transforming hearts
Joy shall embrace
Life’s hope restarts
Redemption shared
Walking with Christ
Because God cared
Evil’s plan iced
Grace reconciled
Sins forgiven
Darkness exiled
Gospel-driven
From the words of American pastor and Christian teacher, Charles Stanley: “Experiencing the forgiveness God offers will transform every part of life.”

This is such beautiful reminder of all the wonderful things that God does for us. I often think of how undeserving we are of God’s grace and His tender mercies. Yet He is so ready and willing to forgive us.
