Amazing Grace! Amazing Love!

Many many years ago, Mister Bill and I took a ride in a hot air balloon once. It was pretty cool although we remained tied to the ground!  I don't known, maybe that doesn't count. "Herein is love; when I cannot rise to Him He draws near on wings of grace, to raise me to Himself." (The Valley of Vision). In this life many things are out-of-reach; this is not so regarding God's Love. "God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8). Unable to reach out to God for salvation (aka dead), God looked on man with tender mercy on man's helpless state then sent Jesus as Savior. How amazing is that grace! "But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ - by grace you have been saved." (Ephesians 2:4-5). Amazing grace - Amazing Love!
