Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. So says the Word.
How often have I found grace in the eyes of the Lord? Numberless times ten thousand.
Looking into the eyes of God we find grace for today. Mercies are new and compassion does not fail to appear.
The Lord longs to be gracious to us. He rises to show us compassion.
He rises.
He actively pursues us, reaching His loving hand to the depths of where we are.
He longs to be Father to us, wanting to release the chains of our self-inflicted prisons, yearning to offer a healing balm to sin-sick souls.
He rises.
He offers grace. It emanates from His being. Because He is a gracious God, a compassionate Father, arms outstretched, inviting us to come.
When I turn toward Him and look into His face, I find grace in the eyes of the Lord.
Sunday grace.
