I can still quite remember the day God first slapped me around the head. Well not quite literally, but i was slapped into awareness. Into some form of understanding. I could never really say that I now totally understand God's mercy but in that beautiful awakening I'm sure He did skim through it with me. But still I am totally struck and dumbfounded at the stretch of his mercy. No matter how low we've come to or how fallen we are, He is there with outstretched arms ready to pick us up. The forgiveness of our sins even before we were here to commit them.
When God started opening my eyes, to the extent on how much He loved us, the extent on how far we'd been forgiven, I was overwhelmed. Something so undeserved, so pure was given to us out of so much love, mercy and grace. Not only did we recieve His forgiveness, we recieved his favour, strength and so much more unbelievable things in life.
I realise my thoughts on this are quite a mess at this moment. But thats how much God's grace and mercy has affected me. Truth of the matter is that i could never compile all that love, mercy and grace and how i feel about it into words. It's just too mind blowing for me. I just pray that one day i will be able to express all that gratitude to Him, but for now i'll serve and thank Him out of that very gratitude.
