Do you ever think about how far you have come and that you’ve gone through or all that you are currently experiencing? Marvin Sapp’s, song Here I Am says that he almost gave up but he’s still standing. It is by the grace and mercy of God that we are still here. In the Psalm 23, David concludes the Psalm by saying “surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” Into every life a little rain must fall but through the rain and the storm we can come out brand new.
Here I am – Marvin Sapp

Amen to that Dee. His grace is awesome. T.D. Jakes and the Potter’s House choir sings a song about grace too. And you know how dramatic Rev. Jakes voice is as he narrates. But essentially, if it wasn’t for God’s grace where would any of us be. To God be all the glory!

YES! I continuously think about what I have been through, going through, and what is yet to come! By GOD’s mercy, goodness, and grace I too like Marvin sings… I am still standing…I am still alive…I am still smiling…and I THANK HIM! I THANK HIM! I PRAISE HIM! I HONOR HIM! Did I say I THANK HIM! To God be the glory…sometimes I cannot believe that I am still standing after all I have been through! HERE I AM TOO! BLESSED IN HIS NAME!
