Mercy is Waiting by Brian Weller

I wrote this song after a failure in my life. My heart is to serve God fully and completely but there are times I've failed at this, either through sins of commission or sins of omission. Whether it be pride, selfishness or lust, There is a battle going on inside me just like Paul spoke of in the Epistles. When I've failed in that battle, I've learned to get up, receive the mercy of God, learn from my mistake or sin and move on. God just wants my heart and with that He wants me to be honest, not hypocritical. I've been both and honest is much better. As I've gotten older, I've learned to confess these things to God and others. God is doing a work in all of us who believe. He is the potter and we are the clay. He knows how to bring the right trials at the right times to mold us into His likeness. He is so faithful! He that has begun a good work in us will complete it, don't jump off the potter's wheel. His mercies are new every morning. If you are overwhelmed with guilt over some sin in your life, confess it now to Him and receive forgiveness. If it is a recurring sin that you struggle with find a brother or sister in the Lord, perhaps a leader or mentor who can help you gain victory in your life. God will give you freedom as you learn to lean on Him and others in honesty and grace. Remember, Grace is getting from God what we don't deserve and Mercy is not getting from God what we do deserve. His mercy is waiting for you!!
