I woke up with this song in my head, and have been singing it to myself all morning. I have currently had my eyes and heart opened to a sin in my life that had been (for lack of a better word) "hiding"... God has broken me in this process of repentance, but His healing is worth every minute. Your post is refreshing and encouraging. Thank you for using your gift of writing to be a blessing to others!Bonnie G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07249895295535842894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-115654094121749505.post-990614898521780002009-03-19T23:39:00.000-05:002009-03-19T23:39:00.000-05:00Wonderful post, I so needed this.

His grace is so deep and unfathomable that at times the very thought astounds me. I don't deserve it but am glad I have it.

I love to find blogs for my spirit!<BR/> Eufaula is a sweet little town. I really love the people and especially our church home there. Southpoint Church. <BR/> If you ever drive through and see me on the porch do stop for some sweet tea!<BR/>Hugs<BR/>BeckyOne Shabby Old Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09343101661626722420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-115654094121749505.post-50411505025670130202009-03-19T12:03:00.000-05:002009-03-19T12:03:00.000-05:00Ah, Wesley and CS Lewis in the same post. Indeed,...Ah, Wesley and CS Lewis in the same post. Indeed, a good day! <BR/><BR/>Full redemption...when our "past" begins to work for us rather than against us! It's taken me a long season to allow God his hands in my brokenness and only recently have I known the freedom from my past. He is working my "everything" into his plan.<BR/><BR/>Recently, I spoke to a group of women about becoming "a living stone from brokenness," based on 1 Peter 2:4-5. I believe that God can use it all to shine for him, the good, the bad, and the "we'd rather forgets"! It takes time, just like your sink, but with true surrender and transparency before Him, we, like him, are being built into an everlasting kingdom. <BR/><BR/>Today, I'm thankful for it all...past, present, and what's to be. May God grant me the willing strength to walk it all through, come what may.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for checking in and your kind comments. It means so very much to me.<BR/><BR/>peace~elaineelaine @ peace for the journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09675745465728814736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-115654094121749505.post-9852358797415018452009-03-19T06:05:00.000-05:002009-03-19T06:05:00.000-05:00Thank you for this post.

I don't think I'll ever look at the spots in my sink the same way...there are MANY. I can scrub until I'm blue in the face, but they just won't come out. Now they will be a gentle reminder of His mercy and grace.

If we only had the ability to edit out things that were hurtful to ourselves or others... I am so grateful that Christ has covered all of my sins and continues to do so daily! I often again regret things for which I am forgiven and realize that Satan is working on me to keep my shame and discomfort alive in my mind. It is then that I turn to God and praise Him for His forgiveness and wonder! Blessings to you!Ramonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13113474179404476951noreply@blogger.com
