WHAT DOES IT MEAN BY GRACE & MERCY?
The web defines it as

In Christianity and some other religions, grace is the kindness that God shows to people because he loves them.
mercy
This blog is about the Grace and Mercy of God given to each of us although we may do things that is not pleasing in God's site, yet He still shows us love, compassion and forgiveness.
THATS WHY I LOVE MY GOD SO MUCH!
In today's society we have so many temptations and so many demons to fight against that sometimes it seems so hard to resist and we just give into it. But I can reassure you God knows our life's plan and the paths in which we decide to take even though that is not what he has destined for us.
Here is a testimony of just encounter of God's grace and mercy for me.
It was May 2012 and my mom had just passed away about a month prior after a long fight with cancer. The way I was feeling at that time was undesirable. I would come home from work and just lock myself in my room and cry.
I couldn't understand why God would take my mother who was my everything.( I started to just doubt so many things that I was taught growing up about God). I just wanted to take my life, I just didn't want to exist,
Although I had numerous encounters with people whom God use to relay messages to me it was as though nothing they said matter anymore because in my mind God failed me.
It wasn't until early that Saturday before Whit Monday as I slept that I heard a voice telling me anniot your head with oil, the voice just kept repeating anniot your head with oil.
When I got up about 7 am that morning the first thing I did was get the bottle of annoyed olive oil and placed the cross on my forehead, I then proceeded to place crosses on all the doors in my house.
Whit Monday came and I was at home doing my routine of cleaning while I waited for my fiance to call me to pick him up. When I got his call it was about 2:20 that afternoon, I stopped what I was doing jump in my car and headed for him. In about 10 minutes of me leaving the house I got into a accident.
The driver of a F150 truck slammed into my car after running the light, he hit the back part of my car which caused it to spin out off control flip over and ended up in aside ditch.
When the car stopped I remembered seeing people coming running towards where my car had stopped, at that time I had a razor in my car that I was using to cut the seat belt off of me.
I claimed through the passenger door because the driver door was jammed
I remember everyone just talking at once and asking if I was okay. All I could say was thank you God. I had not one scratch on my body and I was more than thankful.
When the police came as he talked to me he kept telling me I was lucky and I said favored. It wasn't until riding home with my dad that he said the police told him from examming yhe car that my gas tank was completely mashed in and he is surprise it didn't explode.
It was the I realized that the dream I had was my angel sending me a message to protect me.
OBEDIENCE is very important, if I had just brushed off what I heard as I slept today I would have probably been dead.
God's grace and mercy kept me and from that day to this I continue to tell people how wonderful, gracious, loving and patient God is.
This is just one of my many stories I will be sharing. If you or someone you know have a story about Grace and Mercy shown to them please email me and I will be more than happy to share on this blog.
STAY ENCOURAGED KNOWING GOD IS THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF ALL THINGS.
