You Are Not the Only One

Heavenly, Father, I love with a love that no one can explain. It has been a challenging year so far. There are days when I wonder if I am staying within your will. Then I read your word, and it tells me to believe that you are God and that my steps are ordered by you. Then you confirm that you have set my purpose since the beginning of the world, and no one can change that course!

1. 1. I thank you, Lord Jesus, and praise your holy name! You love deeper, and Your love lasts forever, Unlike human love. Your love is not conditional and the kind of love that says, “If you are who I want you to be, I will love you. But when you want, I will tell the world about it!. “1  Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us because it did not know Him.”  1 John 3:1 NKJV
   2. I thank Father God that you are my judge, not man. I thank you for your grace. I thank you for your mercy..and I give you the praise! “Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?” Matthew 7:1-3 NKJV
   3. I thank you for never abandoning me when I step off course. You are God, and there is none like you. You are God, and the whole world should know that. We know that we are not perfect, yet you still love us! “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.  1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Father, I don’t say these things today to gain pity, but I am telling them because I know that at least one person who will read this needs encouragement. The world and their friends have beaten up on them so much that they are beginning to wonder if you still live in them.   Well, Father, I  know you do, and it is just an attack from the enemy. Please, Father, let that someone know that they are not alone. They have brothers and sisters in Christ who are praying for them daily. Let them feel your will’s strength and your love’s warmth as you wrap your arms around them. Let them know that when they fall off the path you have placed them on, you will pick them up! Thank you for the strength to live as you would have us live, Father. And give us the grace to be to others as you are to us, AMEN!

Only Grace by Matthew West
From the album History

There is no guilt here
There is no shame
No pointing fingers
There is no blame
What happened yesterday has disappeared
The dirt has washed away
And now it’s clear

There’s only grace
There’s only love
There’s only mercy and, believe me, it’s enough
Your sins are gone
Without a trace
And there’s nothing left now
There’s only grace

You’re starting over now
Under the sun
You’re stepping forward now
A new life has begun
Your new life has begun

And there’s only grace
There’s only love
There’s only mercy and, believe me, it’s enough
Your sins are gone
Without a trace
And there’s nothing left now
There’s only grace

And if you should fall again
Get back up, get back up
Reach out and take my hand
Get back up, get back up
Get back up again
Ohh get back up again

There’s only grace
There’s only love
There’s only mercy and, believe me, it’s enough it’s enough
Your sins are gone
Without a trace
And there’s nothing left now
There’s only there’s only grace

There’s only mercy
and, believe me, it’s enough its enough
Your sins are gone
Without a trace
And there’s nothing left now
There’s only grace

So get back up get back up again
Get back up again.
