If you have been a Christian for more than 33 seconds, you have probably sang and subsequently fallen in love with the song “Amazing Grace.”
And rightfully so. It is an incredible song. Wonderful lyrics, powerful truth and encouraging melody.
As daughters of Christ, we can and should be endlessly thankful for the Amazing Grace He bestows upon us.
But as an army wife, mama and minister, sometimes I beg Him for grace… specifically the kind that changes with my heart needs as the world around me changes.
Because CHANGE. IS. HARD. With the constant, never-ending changes that seem to come hand-in-hand with military life, I need many different kinds of grace.
So when I think about “changing grace” for my everyday walk as a wife to my soldier, I consider making an additional version of the song with lyrics that include “Ever-changing grace, how sweet the sound! That saved a weary _______ (mom/wife/daughter/minister) like me.” #CanIGetAnAmen?
God’s grace to save our souls never changes. BUT… The grace that he gives in the moment for us to bestow on others in our lives does.
And praise Him for that. Because if I only I had one type of grace to give, my grace tank would be forever running on empty.
Interested to see just how God’s can change our personal grace for the moment? Pop on over to Wives of Faith to keep reading.
In what areas do you need ever-changing grace the most? To whom do you find yourself extending the most grace to in your life? How can you keep your grace tank running full?

Next time you are mopping up another juice mess or changing your schedule or trying to maintain your composure in the midst of hard life changes, cling to Jesus and hum this little tune:
“Ever-Changing Grace, How Sweet The Sound.”
Resting in His Grace,
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” ~2 Corinthians 12:9
