"For by grace are ye saved through faith;
and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.

For we are his workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus unto good works,
which God hath before ordained
that we should walk in them."
(Ephesians 2:8-10 KJV)

Amazing Grace

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see.
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed!

The Lord has promised good to me, His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be as long as life endures.
Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come;
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, the sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below, will be forever mine.
When we've been there ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise than when we'd first begun.

I’ve talked to a number of persons this last week and all but one had real problems facing them. We live in a “problemed” world; a Devil looking for whom he may devour, and a people without a firm grip on the hand of Jesus. My heart goes out to each one...but, really, Jesus is the answer! Re-read the scripture and song above, and catch the vision of a Christ that will not fail you!!! The only secret is walking by faith with Him. He has never failed, and wouldn’t, even if He could!
Praise His wonderful name!
