“Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me!” None of us want to think that we are wretched. When we compare ourselves with others we think we are somewhat better or okay, we don't realise how wretched and pitiful we are. When Isaiah saw the LORD Almighty in all His glory, he said, "Woe is me, for I am ruined! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I live among a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts." When he saw the holiness of God, he recognised his own sinfulness. We can never go to God in this sinful state. Today, we have a Saviour, Jesus Christ, who died for us. He will save us by His grace and make us righteous, all we have to do is place our faith and trust in Him. Would you ask Him to be your Saviour and Lord?

Amazing Grace

Inspired by the shape of the graduation caps (also known as an academic cap, graduate cap, mortarboard, or trencher) was probably designed by Jenny Beavan for Romola Garai as Barbara Spooner-Wilberforce in the 2006 Amazing Grace. It was adorned with decorative but fussy feathers for the next known use on Chloe Pirrie as the equally fussy and clucky Isabella Knightly in the 2020 Emma.The feathery velvet cap was lastly reused on Agny Scott’s Mrs. Croft for the 2022 Persuasion.

|| 🍍• Why are we sleeping on ‘Amazing Grace’ as a song for Huskerdust?

Think of the drama! Think of the pizazz! Think of the lyrics! Think of that juicy confession scene™️!

‘Amazing Grace

How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch, like me?!

I once was lost?!?!

But now I’m found?!?!?!

Was blind but now I see?!?!?!?!?!’

Specifically this version by Celtic Woman™️, but I’ve listened to this 4 times over and now I’m out here - completely sane - plotting an endgame big, glamorous wedding scene fic, jfc help me!

Should I talk about this more and/or write this?? Would anyone read this?!

It is when we stumble or fail, that we value and appreciate the grace of God. We fall face down and confess our sins and receive His grace with a grateful heart. But as time passes and we have been walking faithfully in the path of righteousness for some time, it is then we get familiar with grace. We take our success for granted often forgetting where we started. We become judgmental and look upon others with contempt. In 1 Corinthians 15:10, Paul said, “I am what I am by the grace of God” attributing his success to the grace of God. He is careful to mention that he was the worst of sinners- a persecutor of the church. Let us never in the best of days forget the grace of God as we did in our worst.

Guys. Something is wrong with Annoying Orange.
