My Alabaster Box



In the past few months, I have come to know a God that is so merciful, so kind, full of compassion and one who is constantly thinking about me. I have strayed many times from Him, gone my own way and totally disregarded His love. I have regarded His gentleness as weakness and always felt I could get away with having it my way. In my disobedience I was exposed though I did not realise it. I suffered a great deal......but in the mist of my calamity I called upon the Rock of ages......I felt my sins were too much and He would not hear me, but His mercy prevailed. He said "I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remenbers your sins no more. (Isaiah 43:25) .
Because I had sinned against Him, I bear the Lord's wrath until He pleads my case and establises my right, He will bring me out into the light, I will see His righteousness(Micah 7:9) Isn't that a lovely verse.....He is both the righteous Judge that punishes sin and He is my advocate that pleads my case, and it doesn't end there....He is my deliverer that brings me out into the light.
For this reason I pour my love on Him, I pour my tears on Him, for His mercy, for I have been greatly forgiven.
