Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie, and it's time for us to
- 0:04Speaker 1: go to God in prayer, and as always, I ask
- 0:07Speaker 1: that you join along with me in prayer, you know.
- 0:10Speaker 1: And I think about the grace of God, Oh, that
- 0:13Speaker 1: amazing grace, that unmerited favor that we get from God,
- 0:18Speaker 1: and I think how much I desperately needed, and whether
- 0:22Speaker 1: we know it or not, we all need the grace
- 0:25Speaker 1: of God, Heavenly Father. In the name of Jesus Christ,
- 0:30Speaker 1: we come before you today, humbled and grateful for your
- 0:33Speaker 1: amazing grace, a grace so deep, so wide, so powerful
- 0:38Speaker 1: that nothing in our lives can outrun it or outsind it. Lord.
- 0:44Speaker 1: Thank you that your grace is not earned, it's not deserved,
- 0:48Speaker 1: it's not achieved, but freely given because of your unfailing
- 0:52Speaker 1: love for us. Father, Today we pause to reflect on
- 0:57Speaker 1: just how much your grace has carried us. When we
- 1:00Speaker 1: look back over our lives, we see moments where your
- 1:03Speaker 1: grace stepped in, moments where we didn't even realize you
- 1:07Speaker 1: were protecting us and guiding us and covering us. Lord,
- 1:10Speaker 1: your grace covers our failures when we fell short of
- 1:14Speaker 1: who we wanted to be, and even further from who
- 1:17Speaker 1: you called us to be. Your grace covers our brokenness. God,
- 1:21Speaker 1: it heals us in places we thought we would never mend.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Your grace covers our sins, wiping them clean and casting
- 1:29Speaker 1: them into the sea of forgetfulness. You said you'll remember
- 1:33Speaker 1: them no more. Your grace covers our guilt, lifting the
- 1:37Speaker 1: weight we were never meant to carry anyway. Your grace
- 1:41Speaker 1: covers our doubts, reminding us that your strength is made
- 1:46Speaker 1: perfect in our weakness. Your grace covers our past, rewriting
- 1:51Speaker 1: our story with redemption. Thank you, Jeesus. Your grace covers
- 1:55Speaker 1: our fears, giving us courage to face tomorrow. Your grace
- 1:59Speaker 1: covers our short comings, filling every gap with your sufficiency.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Your grace covers our mistakes, turning them into lessons and
- 2:07Speaker 1: even testimonies. Your grace covers our weariness, renewing our strength
- 2:13Speaker 1: when we have nothing left. Oh Lord, your grace covers
- 2:19Speaker 1: it all. Father, Today we thank you for your grace
- 2:24Speaker 1: that finds us in the dark and brings us into
- 2:26Speaker 1: the light. Grace that never gives up on us, Grace
- 2:29Speaker 1: that holds us when life is just too heavy, Grace
- 2:33Speaker 1: that keeps reaching down to lift us up. Help us
- 2:36Speaker 1: to live in that grace God, not as people bound
- 2:39Speaker 1: by shame, but as people set free. Not as people
- 2:43Speaker 1: defined by our paths, but people walking boldly into the future.
- 2:48Speaker 1: Let your grace transform our hearts, renew our minds, and
- 2:51Speaker 1: shape our lives. Let us extend God that same grace
- 2:55Speaker 1: to others, just as freely as you've poured into us. Lord.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Let us never take your amazing grace for granted. Let
- 3:05Speaker 1: it always bring us to our knees in a spirit
- 3:08Speaker 1: of gratitude and thanksgiving as we lift our hands and
- 3:12Speaker 1: praise God. You didn't have to love us, but you did.
- 3:15Speaker 1: You didn't have to forgive us, but you did. You
- 3:17Speaker 1: didn't have to save us, God, but you did it anyway.
- 3:20Speaker 1: And for that God, we give your glory, we give
- 3:23Speaker 1: your honor, and we give you praise for your amazing
- 3:27Speaker 1: grace in the mighty merciful name of Jesus. Amen. Amen, Amen,
