Overwhelmed by Mercy

Jesus, I feel so overwhelmed by your mercy.
So amazed that You would invite me into relationship simply for the joy of being my friend.
That each day You meet me, offering vulnerability, asking me only to trust .
I find it so hard to leave behind my striving and to simply accept Your love.
And yet, in grace You keep inviting me, drawing me.
Asking me to let go of me and  to allow You to meet my needs.
Thank You Jesus for mercy and grace.

Thank You for pursuing me, for wanting me. 
Thank You for a love that melts my defenses.
