I heard this song in the Precious thoughts store today...It caught me...
Grace has called my name( Kathryn Scott)
Peace as elusive as a shadow
Dancing on the wall
Life swallowed by the pain of yesterday
Left broken by the shame
of things that I had done
No freedom from the choice that I'd made
But with one touch
You made me clean
You met me in my
Deepest need
Grace has called my name
When all that I had left
Were just
Filthy stains
Grace has called my name
When hope had all but
faded
far away
Grace called my name
Wounded by words
that left their mark upon my soul
Dreams overturned by empty promises
Well- intentioned things I'd heard
A million times before
Just left my heart to grieve alone again
But with one touch
YOu set me free
You met me in
my deepest need
( to chorus)
Your mercy has met me
You set me
FREE
This song really speaks of my struggles thus far. It is a timely reminder, that God's grace always calls us back to Him. My struggle to seek for the peace of God amidst all the distractions,to come to Him with all the past pains of sin and shame, has blinded me to His grace, causing me to gain no sight of freedom and release from the choices that i have made as in the song. All seems lost. But the song also says, WITH ONE TOUCH, God makes us clean, and God will meet us in our deepest need. God knows what we go through. We do not struggle alone. We do not struggle against an undefeatable force. Because, by God's grace, that force has been SUBDUED! That force is NO LONGER has any power over us!
Your is sufficient for me, For Your power is made perfect in my weakness.
