By the Grace of God

I thank you Lord for being in your hands. I thank you Lord for being part of your plan. I am on my own but I am not alone because It's by your Grace that I can keep my pace. I know you love me Lord even when things are hard and I know you will be by my side and you will always be my guide.

When I don't know what to do I know I can always trust in you, because it's by your Grace that my life is no longer a waste. Even when i was strung out on alcohol and drugs, you still showed me love and when I felt like the whole world had put me down you brought me back around.

You took away fears and wiped away my tears. Now I have the strength to go on and finish the race, for you have taken my case, I feel your wonderful embrace and it's by your Heavenly grace. Father, I pray, that one day, I see you face to face through my Lord Jesus Christ and by your Heavenly Grace...

This poem says it all. How wonderful to discover the truth and act on it. The rewards are everlasting. Jesus himself said that no one could pluck us out of His hand.
