We implore the mercy of God, not that He may leave us at peace in our vices, but that He may deliver us from them. — Blaise Pascal
Hebrews 4:15-16 NLT 15 This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. 16 So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.
Oh how I thank God for His brand new mercies each day! I used to hear the previous generation say, ” If it wasn’t for the grace and mercy of God, I would not know where I would be.”
That statement is true today, at least for me.
But one thing is clear to me: “If it was not for the Lord’s Grace, Mercy and Love, I would not know where I would be.”
Some may remember the lyrics to this song. There are a couple of versions by various artists, but I like this one by Dorinda Clark-Cole:
If it had not been for the Lord
Who was on my side
I wanna know where I’d be
If it had not been for the Lord
Who was on my side
I wanna know where I’d be
When I think about
All the many times
That I could’ve been cast away
And God’s loving grace
Came to rescue me
And kept me away from all tragedy
Each and every day
As I kneel and pray
And I ask the Lord for one more chance
New mercies that He lets me see
That’s why I can sing all day
Remember the time
That I thought that I
Was just about to loose my mind, yeah
Lost in despair, thought that no one cared
Headed down the road to no where
I can look back and see
Everything God’s done for me
Through dangers seen and unseen
The Lord’s protecting me
(Where would I be)
If He hadn’t kept me
(What would I say)
If He hadn’t showed me
(Where would I go)
If the Lord didn’t tell me
Through all my ups and downs
He lifts me to higher ground
I couldn’t walk, ya’ll
(If it had not been for Him)
I couldn’t talk, ya’ll
(If it had not been for Him)
I couldn’t speak, ya’ll
(If it had not been for Him, for the Lord)
I couldn’t breathe, ya’ll
(If it had not been for Him)
I couldn’t live, ya’ll
(If it had not been for Him)
I woudn’t be, ya’ll
(If it had not been for Him)
I don’t know where I would be
May you never forget that it is by God’s grace and mercy that you are here with another chance to grow closer to a Heavenly Father that has given you a special gift, Jesus, so that you can live eternally with Him
