“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” (Hebrews 4:16, NLT).
There is
a Savior. There is a throne of grace..... a grace which looks beyond my failure
and my sin, and recognizes my need...... a grace so forgiving and so complete,
that nothing can destroy its power to change my life. My soul cries out for His
mercy when my life is broken. My spirit thirsts for His grace when my heart is
strained. His mercy forgives, and His grace lifts me up when I have fallen down.
I come to His altar.... to the all-powerful, infinite, and sovereign God who can
move mountains and change circumstances and lives. There He waits for me to come
to Him, this great God of the universe, who yearns to love me intimately and
wants to call me His child. There, on my knees in complete surrender, I receive
His mercy and His forgiveness. He lifts my head, and in that wonder, I am lost
in the love of His sacrifice for me. I receive His grace to meet any need. At
His altar I find Him.
“In my distress I prayed to the LORD, and the
LORD answered me and set me free:” (Psalm 188:5, NLT).
