to God...
grace... given.. taken, yet unchanged...
many times in life, we crave for a second chance, and yet when given, we make the same old mistake with that second piece of paper. and after which we yearn for a third, a fourth, a fifth, continuning the deadly cycle.
Sure, God gives us grace, but how much so we take it into our heart? Many a times, God just seem so far and distant, and many a times, no matter how much you do not want to make the mistake, that same old thing in you just persuade you to carry on. It doesn't necessary mean that "Hey, i'm not perfect, so need to wait for me to grow rite?" but hey, are we really growing internally as we are supposed to? Putting one into a area of temptation where everything in the surrounding is not helping one to get near to God, but to encourage one to get even furthur. How much help are we giving ourselves when we do that? Speaking of Grace, how often is grace given and yet forgotten? How many a times do we make God tear for us. How many a times do we let God sunk down in disappointment for us. How Jesus felt when He is on the cross, dying for the sins of men, but yet, men taking it forgranted and mocking Him. That kind of feeling. We as child of God. How many a times have we bitten Him? Hurt we feel when we get sheep bites, but what about when we bite back at God? How does He feel? But yet... He chose to still be with us. He chose to be still there. Why? One may think. Why?....
At the top of God's creation is is ultimate and most wonderfully made. Men. Adam and Eve. Both the ultimate creation, given a mind to think and to speak. Beautifully and wonderfully made, but how many a times, have we allow ourselves to be stashed with dirt and scars. Scars that we never reveal, dirt that we cover up... But God sees them....
*Our tears are diamond in His eyes. How about His in our heart?
+ AMEN
