Amazing Grace
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast.”
(Ephesians 2:8,9)
Linda married her high school sweetheart.? She was blessed with wonderful children who loved her.? For years, her world seemed perfect.
Then Linda got a phone call.? Her husband was in an accident and would never walk again.
Suddenly Linda’s perfect world was shattered.? She struggled to be a helpful wife.? But her smile was empty and she became depressed.? Although Linda went to church and knew the Bible stories about Jesus, the words held little meaning.?
Then one Sunday when the choir sang “Amazing Grace,??? the words flooded into her heart with new meaning.? For the first time, Linda asked Jesus to come into her life.? The God’s peace and joy filled her.?
And this time, her smile was real.
Dear one, turn to Jesus for help and hope.? To find out how, go to www.womentoday.org.
