Saved by His Grace

Ephesians 2:4 ..But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions, it is by grace that you have been saved.

Who am I Lord that you are so mindful of me? I've done awful things in your sight but still you remained faithful. How come you love me this much? Do I deserve this? not that I'm complaining my King, but because I'm in awe of your unconditional love.

I remembered the time when I refused to follow your will. My rebellious heart kept on searching for the love that wil complete me. But no matter how I try to fix the puzzles of love I just can't seem to understand it. You repeatedly asked me to surrender my heart but I turned my back on you. I made my own pathway of love and I was happy. But Little did I know that It was just temporary. The pathway became a pit of darkness, loneliness and brokeness. You reached your hand towards me but still I refused to hold on to you. I tried climbing up, fixing my life, forcing things to be ok but my King.... I failed.....

In my weakness, there you stood up from your Throne, knelt down and grabbed me with your loving arms. That's the only time that I finally understood your grace that saved me from destruction. My King, listen to my heart saying.... I love you... please forgive me, make me your princess again.. This time I'll let you rule over me because now I SURRENDER.-anj

My heart, your Home

Come and make my heart your home

Come and be everything I am and all I know

search me through and through

Until my heart becomes a home for you

A home for you

A home for you

Let everything I do

Open up a door for you to come through

Then my heart would be a place where you wanna be

There's no need to fight...

I've been reading 2Chronicles chapter 20 for how many days now. I'm really amazed on how God showed His strength and His power. Jehoshaphat knew God is a merciful God. He knew very well that God will rescue them, but of course he has no idea how God will do it. Here, I've seen so much faith, they went on marching, praising God and expecting that they will defeat the vast army with their own hands, but God did all the work, He did it because He saw how the people humbled themselves before Him. God saw their desperation. God knew that He was the only hope of His people. I can just imagine v23, when the enemies were really confused and ended up killing each other. Wow! That's amazing! Do you know that God can do that in our lives? Even if we are in the midst of temptations, confusions, The blood of Christ is more than enough to destroy the enemies plan. We have to know that the battle is not ours. We have to set our eyes on our Savior and strongly believe that we have won and the victory is ours forever!! GOD IS POWERFUL! HE WILL SAVE US NO MATTER WHAT!

God gave me this song while I was meditating on this chapter. I pray that through this song He will remind you of His power and that no one can ever defeat Him- blessings!-anj

Battle- Anj
When I'm weak
You made me strong
When I'm down
You raised me up
When I failed
You said "I'll be great"
I'll be great

For the battle is yours
For the battle is yours
And by your Power and Majesty
The enemy fails
