Jesus Could Have . . .

but He chose mercy.

Hello Friends,

Last week I shared the words below on Substack notes, and today I created a video with them. May the words, music, beauty, and our Savior who inspired all bring you peace and assurance of your eternity with Him.

Jesus,
You could have
slain me
in my sin,
yet you passed
over me
in mercy.
And I will spend
eternity
in grateful praise
that your blood
redeemed me,
your grace
saved me,
and your love
transformed me
forever.
Selah.

[F]or all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed[.] — Romans 3:23-25 NAS95

Praise God!

In Christ,

Janice
