"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." Romans 3:23-24 This piece was created in the midst of a personal challenging time, where I found myself facing directly to the eyes of a frustration in my journey to continue building a truer relationship with God and with myself. I try to walk the straight path, do my good deeds and yet always fall short. That gap opens a downward spiral: faith starts to question itself, clarity glitches, purpose blurs. However out of all this experience, I gain strength, a deeper understanding. After I'm emptied, and I witness the humble truth of being human, I am convinced to the mercifulness and unconditional love of god. A father that forgives and renews our hearts and mind to serve him. This It is what remains after I was emptied, and found that grace was already there.
