Graced

So I haven’t posted in a long time. There’s a reason for that, and that reason is a long story. For now I won’t share details, but I’d like to introduce something. The last eight months have been a turbulent, on-going adventure with Christ. My life has changed drastically through Jesus’s gift of grace, which brings me to what I want to introduce. This year I want to share some of His grace and help you see you how He sees you. This year all my posts will be themed around this one word: graced.

If you believe in Christ, He has set you apart, marked you for his work, and covered you in grace you don’t have to earn. Whatever shame you’re feeling today, whatever dirty deeds you’re hiding under the covers, keeping in the closet, deleting your search history over, or hoping nobody can read your mind for are paid for in full by grace. You are beautiful, my friend. You are loved. You are alive. You are not condemned. You are free. You are worthy. I am praying you come to know this fully and come to know Jesus’s grace like I have.

Jesus has taken me on a journey and graced my life to the point that I am not the person I was a eight months ago. It wasn’t by my own power or might, but by His alone, and He wants to do the same for you. Are you ready to take the first step on His path for you? Whatever is burning in your mind right now…that thought, that word, that verse, that whatever it is—good or bad,right or wrong, shameful or holy pray about it. Ask Jesus what the first step is. Are you ready to lay it at His feet and trust Him to be faithful? Are you ready for freedom? Are you ready for grace? If yes, what are you waiting for? Let’s get ready to be graced by our Jesus.
