eleven: grace

at july's eleven, barbara clark helped us explore God's grace, in particular the quote from philip yancey that:

"nothing i do can make God love me more. nothing i do can make God love me less."

we were challenged to think about what God's grace meant to us, what difficulties we might have believing in a God of grace and how we responded to the quote above.

we also used a challenging song by paul field to focus our response, the words are below.

eleven happens on the first sunday of every month - august's event will be a picnic on kinver edge. 11am, sunday 6th august 2006.

God of the moon and stars

God of the moon and stars
God of the near and far
God of the fragile hearts we are I come to You
God of our history
God of the future that will be
What will You make of me I come to You

God of the meek and mild
God of the reckless and the wild
God of the unreconciled I come to You
God of our life and death
God of our secrets unconfessed
God of our every breath I come to You

God of the rich and poor
God of the princess and the whore
God of the ever open door I come to You
God of the unborn child
God of the pure and undefiled
God of the pimp and paedophile I come to You

God of the war and peace
God of the junkie and the priest
God of the greatest and the least I come to You
God of the refugee
God of the prisoner and the free
God of my doubt and certainty I come to You

God of our joy and grief
God of the lawyer and the thief
God of our faith and unbelief I come to You
God of the wounds we bear
God of the deepest dreams we share
God of our unspoken prayer I come to You

God of a world that's lost
God of a lonely cross
God who has come to us we come to You
