Today is national freedom day. Well, my celebration is a rather different way of celebrating the, so called freedom. Although it is autumn, I decided to Spring clean.

I started by cleaning the kitchen, on my knees, scrubbing the floors, I listened to my worship cd playing in the background.

The words of Grace,   by Micheal W Smith, reminded me that I am free.

MICHAEL W. SMITH

Grace Lyric

I was lost when You found me here

You pulled me close and held me near

And I’m a fool but still You love

I’ll be a fool for the king of love

He gave me wings so I could fly

And gave me a song to color the sky

And all I have is all from You

And all I want is all of You

It’s grace, your grace

I’m nothing without You

Your Grace, Your grace

Shines on me

And there’ve been days when I’ve walked away

Too much to carry, nothing left to say

Forgive me Lord when I’m weak and lost

You traded heaven for a wooden cross

And all these years You’ve carried me

You’ve been my eyes when I could not see

And beauty grows in the driving rain

Your oil of gladness in the times of pain

 

Your grace, Your grace

I’m nothing without You

Your Grace, Your grace

Shines on me

Today I have the wings to fly, knowing I am free because of His saving grace. My songs so many times,when all seemed so grey,  colored my sky. He  is my eyes, being visually impaired I need to rely on Him for guidance and acceptance. He was my healing oil in those days of pain.

Indeed I can celebrate freedom today, I am free because of His grace.

I need to go now, my germ free kitchen is calling out for a celebration. Lemon meringue it will be.
