Jesus, I love you....so much. Thank you for my life. Thank you for all of my precious friends, who share and impart your beautiful grace to me. My life is richer because they're a part of it. I love the way you love me through them. I love to look into the face of my beautiful daughter and see your reflection in her smile. You are so beautiful to me; so sweet, so pure and so real. There's no pretense in you; no distance. I'm thankful that You never leave me alone; that You love me without measure and it's not based on my performance or how perfect I try to do things. Wow, to think that Your righteousness is a gift and my response is only to receive it. It's mine because of the price you paid. Thank you, Abba. Your love is amazing. I pray that everyone who reads this will feel your presence. How awesome You are! Great, mighty and majestic God.....I love you.
This song just came to me and the lyrics are posted below. Isn't he amazing?
Because You Loved Me, sung by Celine Dion
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
I'm everything I am

Very beautiful lyrics!
I think so too, Joel. Thanks for commenting!
wow sheryl, I am so glad that through my need to understand grace and true righteousness I have found beautiful people like you and Joel and Matthew and others, it makes my heart sing,it fills up a place of loneliness inside to hear the hearts of others who want just Jesus,to know him and not religion. Thankyou for expressing your heart so beautifully and sharing those beautiful lyrics and song.
Hi Anne. Welcome to my blog and thank you so much for your post! Your kindness and sincerity have brought a smile to my heart. Joel and Matthew have made and are making a huge impact on me as well, in growing in my understanding of grace. I thank God for both of them. I can relate to the loneliness you speak of here. I draw as much as I can from the dear friends I have online and am trusting Father for some relationships like that in person, as well. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me. It's been a pleasure reading your post.
Blessings,
Sheryl
