Grace That Reaches the Depths
Psalm 104:10
He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills.
Water runs to the lowest point of elevation. So it is with the springs of the Lord! He sends forth His Word from lofty mountain grandeur to lowly wretched man. From Calvary’s mount comes that living water which flows to the lowest depths of our sinful estate. There is a fountain filled with blood, drawn from Emanuel’s vein, and sinners plunged beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains!
Amid this parched desert-land experience we call life is placed a wellspring of living waters for weary pilgrims passing by. Oh soul, are you here without comfort or rest, marching down the rough pathway of time? Come anchor your soul to the haven of rest, and say, “My Beloved is mine!” Christ came that we might have life, and that we might have it more abundantly; there is therefore no reason why you should live another moment without Him.
You may feel you have reached the lowest low, and that consequently you have disqualified yourself from ever receiving God’s grace; however, I assure you, dear reader, that where sin abounded, grace did much more abound (Rom 5:20)! Your “all-time low” is no match for His grace! Romans 8:38-39 says, “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Even as water travels to the lowest point, His grace finds you where you are.
Romans 5:6-8 says, “For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” God does not wait for you to “clean up” before He saves you; if He did so, He would wait in vain. Knowing this, He comes to us in our sin! Even when we’re not looking for Him, He is looking for us.
Dear sinner friend, regardless of your past or present condition, hear me; God loves you! He wants you in His family! If you are ready to turn from your sins to Him, He’ll save you even now. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved!
