My reminder

If you haven't noticed, I have been in a serious funk lately. Spiritually I've been dried up, felt like I was wandering aimlessly, wasn't sure who to talk with, what to say and had no solutions. I feel I've been at a loss. But maybe that's what I needed to find my way up again. There's no need for specifics but definitely I've been down and out. Going through the motions with an empty heart and confused mind.

However. Today was a good day. I think with a few factors involved today I feel I'm seeing some light. I'm not saying that my issues have been resolved but my neck is turning my head to the direction or perspective that I need it to be.

Today we had a great service at church and there was one song that really hit me where I needed it most. The song is called 'Your Grace Still Amazes Me' and I felt quite moved by the lyrics. Yes, His grace does still amaze me especially when I feel empty, alone, without. There is nothing I can do to be where He is and really all I can do is be at the foot of the cross. I can't tell you how deep that song moved me but I think the tears falling from my face were enough to show that I needed to be where I was today. To be honest, I didn't even want to go to church today. I wanted to skip, play hooky, work, whatever but not be there. Out of habit and just plain knowing that fellowshipping with other believers is my life I went and sat in a pew today.

Because of today our Saviour rose again and because of today I know/we know that Christ cannot be bound by the cross. Because of today I was reminded again that death cannot hold Him down. And He did that for me.

Yes, your grace still amazes me.

  1. Rebecca, I can relate so much to your blog as I felt the same way on Sunday. But somehow the singing and communion time changed how I felt. Also having my 2 daughters & grandbabies made a difference. I felt uplifted and encouraged by so many faces. Thanks for posting.
