Your Need for Life

So you’re surviving by grace. And you’re living on mercy. Every single day. Because you know your very real need for life. You know it.

But it is good. Oh, it is good. Because it is the only way to Him.

Your need is the only way to Him.

It’s what breaks you so you stop pushing ahead. So you stop. And grace covers you. In Christ.

It’s what weakens you so you do the wrong thing. So you stumble. And mercy sustains you. In Christ.

Your very real need, it brings you to Christ. Every time.

Because when you need life, and you can’t get it, can’t find it, can’t see it. In that moment of despair, in that time of frustration. In that cycle of failures, where you can’t get life. But you need life.

Remember.

There is only one way to life. He is the Way.

So when your very real need brings you to that place where you’re surviving by grace and living on mercy. Know. There. Every single day, there. Know that Christ is there. That that’s where Christ is. Present, Able, With You, Forever, Faithful. Know that. That you are not alone. That you are not a lost cause. You are where life is found. And it is good.

Your need for life is good. It’ll bring you to Christ every time. It’ll lead you to the Way to life. Let your need do what it will do. In you. Every single day. For that is where Christ is.
