The Same Grace

We can feel free to bring our troubles, anger, frustration, and sadness to God, and we can be assured that He will listen to our every thought and word.  His heart is moved by the things that carve valleys of pain through our souls.  He is there when we weep.  He is there when we ask why.  His understanding and mercy toward us are considerable, and what makes Him great is that they are also considerable toward those we call our enemies.  Can we be okay with that?  Maybe we can.  Maybe we can let it bring us a sense of comfort, knowing that God offers the same grace to all.

“Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you compassion.  For the Lord is a God of justice.  Blessed are all who wait for him!” (Isaiah 30:18, NIV)
