Only by Grace..

Every human is unique. Each having different mindsets, attitudes, characters, perceptions, environments.. We create conflict, for we dont understand each other, we dont understand how another can think so differently from ourself. Thus we harbour much bitterness to each other, most of the time judging others for their wrong doings. But who are we judging? when were all sinners the same, and clinging to the grace of God. Who are we judging when we all fall short when we face the true judge Himself. Yes, we must correct the sin and the wrong in this world, but we must remember to condemm the sin and not the sinner.. Have you been in a situation where youve been completely wronged by someone, when you yourself did nothing wrong? Well its probably an incy bit (too small to describe) of what Jesus when through. Did NOTHING wrong, yet completely hated by the world he came to save.. It isnt easy, learning to love like He did.


It may not even seem right
I didnt even put up a fight
Craziness it seems
But deep in me a memory...

Of a man who did nothing but right
And still he did not put up a fight
And Im hoping you will see
Im here to be your friend, not your enemy

Yes I can sit here and judge
Condemm you of your wrong
But who am I to point a finger?
When the dept of my sin still lingers
And Ill take blow after blow
Just for the hope that you one day know
That youll turn around
And receive this grace that I found

I was about to strike back
When a voice it stopped me on my tracks
It said do you remember? Do you remember?

How you once bore a penalty
How undeservingly you were set free
How your chains were ridden
How your depts were forgotten

Yes I can sit here and judge
Condemm you of your wrong
But who am I to point a finger?
When the dept of my sin still lingers
And Ill take blow after blow
Just for the hope that you one day know
That youll turn around
And receive this grace that I found


And we don't know if its you or me to blame
But whose to say when were guilty all the same
It aint easy...
Loving like He did

We strive in vein to see who gets more
But my friend we're all sinners after all
It aint easy...
Loving like He did

You've struck my right now heres my left to you
All I wish is that youll see right through
It aint easy...
Loving like He did
