~ Imagine Amazing Grace ~
Imagine being perfectly
pure like the loveliness of a white
magnolia, radiating only beauty.
Imagine a grace so
wonderful
Imagine
a salvation so perfect.,
An acceptance of
us so complete, A cleansing so eternal.
Oh yes, God knows and
understands we all get it wrong,
He has always known that,
that is how it is. We don't need to fear
that.
For He loves us. For God SO
loved the world He gave His Son,
While we were still sinners
He died for us,
He didn't wait for us to improve before He
died,
there is nothing we can do
that would give us salvation.
Once we have believed Jesus
died for our sin,
and confessed our need of
that cleansing to God,
He will never hold against
us, ever again, our mistakes, our lack of
wisdom or any wrong we have done,
because He will only see
Jesus when He looks at us,
Jesus completely blocks
God's view.
We may feel miserable from
something we have done,
but God's love remains constant.
God doesn't see big sins
and little sins, we are all equal, all
needing His cleansing.
He is not a big father with
a belt, as Jesus took all the punishment
we deserve,
if we accept and believe,
that He loves us that much.
Imagine looking at Jesus
hanging on the cross, how can we not love
Him,
for He went through so much
to claim cleansing for us.
God will now accept us with
open arms just like the prodigal son was
held tight when he returned home.
Jesus will wipe our ledger
book clean with His blood,
Imagine if Jesus had never
died and risen again to give us life,
there would be no way we
could ever get to heaven,
His death and
resurrection was essential, we cannot do
without it,
it is the only key event in all time,
for only His life can
secure for us, all we will ever need,
eternal life.
Imagine if we had never
sinned...there would be no understanding
of His love,
for He delights in forgiving our sin,
so we can delight in His
grace and mercy.
Imagine if Peter had never denied so
strongly,
how would he ever have come
to know the incredible forgiving grace,
and become humble enough to
preach on the day of Pentecost
for 3,000 to turn to God,
So he couldn't become proud because he
knew
he was such a sinner saved by grace.
Jesus loved Peter so much
He visited him first after the
resurrection,
and touched his heart with
forgiveness and revealed His acceptance of
him.
"Peter do you love Me"
Jesus said, "Yes" Peter replied " You know
I love You".
Imagine mercy as something
we don't understand until we believe God's
grace..
we are used to conditional,
reward systems all our lives.....
When we come to understand
God's grace, His forgiveness, His full
pardon,
then that amazing love, causes us to fall
on our knees in eternal wonder.
He who is forgiven much, loves much,
Jesus said.
We will all be so different
in heaven, so humbled..
Imagine all of us with such
beautiful hearts like Jesus had,
even the most wild,
damaged, sad, confused heart, will be
beautiful,
Imagine all things
beautiful in His time by His grace..
