Do you remember when you felt ashamed?
When you couldn’t get free from the mistakes that you made
And He met you with His kindness, compelled you with grace
So, if you wanna come home, He’ll show you the way
You can count on that, you know what He’s like
You’ve seen Him do it a thousand times
How many times in your life have you needed this reminder? That God has shown you kindness when you have disappointed Him. That He has offered grace when you have turned your back. That He has welcomed you back home with open arms just like He has a thousand times—and will a thousand times more.
We Are Messengers (“God be the Glory,” “Come What May”) lead singer Darren Mulligan comes to this place of realization and assurance from his own life experiences … a long journey toward sobriety, a near-death accident a few years ago, and a desire to please God even though in his human nature, he fails time after time. Sound familiar?
What a joy to be reminded in this week’s new song on Life 100.7 that there’s no too far or one last time when it comes to God’s love and forgiveness.
