To clarify....

I think a lot of people are reading my latest post and thinking I am saying something I never intended to say! So...to clarify...I believe that the beauty of our salvation is the fact that God has opened our eyes to see our ugliness and sin and that He has called us out of death to life! We are all ugly...this is the Gospel. We are all in need of rescuing and God did exactly that. He rescued His children out of our ugliness. In this I rest and rejoice...that God can take the ugly parts of who I am and turn them into something beautiful for His glory. In no way was trying to be self-loathing! But, I will say this....without His grace....where would be?
