This song Amazing Grace recently touched my heart so much, as it was sung at the funeral of my wife's uncle Jack Stultz in Virginia this past weekend. Jack was a wonderful burly man who lived 86 years and became a Christian at the age of 43 years old. Unfortunately, Jack's Godly mother died before Jack was saved, but I am sure she is rejoicing now in Heaven when she saw Jack. Oh what a joyous and happy reunion that must have been; a Mother being reunited in heaven forever and ever with her son. Mothers can be such a Godly influence on their children even after the Mom is gone.
God's grace is sufficient for all, and it is my prayer today that whatever trials and troubles are pressing on your heart, you will go to the Lord today, right now, and lay it at his feet. He died that we may have life, and that we may have it more abundantly. In John 3: Jesus declared that unless a man be born again, he will not see the kingdom of God. If you do not know Jesus, please confess your sins and ask him to come into your heart. God bless.
