Grace Unmeasured Vast and Free

I have experienced God’s unmeasured grace, and I write so that you, too, can encounter His boundless grace in your life.

My life felt broken as I quickly realized I couldn’t live up to the standards I had set for myself. I failed right from the start—falling short not only of my own expectations but also of the standards God set for me.

I’ve failed as a daughter, a wife, and a mom. That pretty much sums up my life.

For years, I wrestled with the feeling of not being ‘enough.’ The world constantly tells women, “You are enough!”—but deep down, I knew I wasn’t.

Instead, I came to a humbling realization: the root of all my failures was sin. I had fallen short—not just in my own eyes, but in the eyes of God. (Romans 3:23)

“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23

Grace Unmeasured

Through this website, I want to help you discover God’s unmeasured grace—His limitless, unmerited favor, pressed down, overflowing, and poured out in love.

Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16

If you’re anything like me, you’ve struggled (or maybe still do) and long to find your true identity in Jesus.

Over the years, God has taught me so much—lessons that have given me the confidence to walk in grace-filled living. I want to share those lessons with you.

Through encouragement, practical tools, and biblical wisdom, I’ll walk alongside you as you embrace the fullness of His grace.

Striving in My Own Strength

My parents were missionaries to Hong Kong and loved the Lord with all their hearts.

I had a solid upbringing and knew—at least in my head—that life was impossible to navigate in my own power and strength.

Even when I succeeded, it was only because of who God created me to be.

But… that was all in my head.

In reality, I was striving—pushing through every challenge in my own strength.

Thankfully, I was a total failure. Because if I had succeeded in my own power, I might never have recognized my desperate need for God’s strength to sustain me.

• I was a failure in school—I didn’t test well.
• I struggled in college—more testing, more failure!
• As a wife, I quickly learned that cooking was necessary… but I couldn’t cook!
• As a mom? Again, failure!

And yet, when you feel like a colossal failure, it can be a good thing—because that’s when you truly see your need for God.

That realization changed everything for me. And maybe it’s the answer to your struggles, too.

My struggles have fueled my writing, my Bible Reading Plans, my Workbooks, and the videos I create on YouTube and in the courses available through His Unmeasured Grace.

You’ll find so much encouragement here—because I want you to experience the power of God’s grace in your own life, just as I have.

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

Vast and Free: Transformation

My transformation into a daughter of the King was not as rapid as I would have liked. I longed for immediate change, but God was working in me over time—molding, refining, and shaping my heart in ways I couldn’t always see.

Most of us are perfectionists. We set impossible standards for ourselves, striving to be enough, do enough, and measure up. But in the process, we often forget to give ourselves the very grace that God so freely pours out over us.

Transformation is a journey—one that requires surrender, trust, and the willingness to accept His unmeasured grace.

Grace Unmeasured in Action

Just after I graduated from high school, I spent the summer living with my older brother’s family. One day, I was helping in the kitchen, with the task of making mashed potatoes.

The problem? I had no idea how.

Growing up in Asia and later living in Hawaii, rice was the staple on our table—not potatoes.

But instead of asking for help (too embarrassed? Too proud?), I decided to figure it out on my own.

So, I did what seemed logical at the time—I grabbed an electric mixer and attempted to mash raw potatoes.

Needless to say, it didn’t work. And I never lived it down.

But worse than the teasing or embarrassment was the fact that I never gave myself grace—not in that moment, and not in the many struggles that followed over the years.

How often do we hold onto our failures, refusing to extend to ourselves the same grace God so freely gives?

Maybe, like me, you’ve spent too much time striving, too afraid to admit when you don’t have all the answers.

But here’s the truth: God doesn’t require perfection—He calls us to surrender. And in surrender, we find His grace, vast and free.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

Join My Journey

Looking back, I realize how many failed moments shaped my journey—moments where I held myself to impossible standards, unwilling to accept the grace God was offering me.

But God, in His kindness, didn’t leave me there. He patiently worked in my heart, showing me that my worth was never in my performance but in who I am in Him.

Maybe you’ve struggled too—feeling like you’re not enough, striving to measure up, or holding onto past failures. But the truth is, God’s grace is unmeasured, vast, and free. It is for you. Right where you are.

God has abundantly poured His unmeasured grace over my life, and I want to share that with you. Join me on this journey through what I share on my blog, where I will encourage you to embrace His grace in your own life.

Grace Unmeasured: Steve Petitt

Here is a song that expresses what I want to give you through my blog. I pray that it will bless you too!!

Grace unmeasured, vast and free

That knew me from eternity

That called me out before my birth

To bring you glory on this earth

Grace amazing, pure and deep

That saw me in my misery

That took my curse and owned my blame

So I could bear your righteous name

Grace paid for my sins

And brought me to life

Grace clothes me with power

To do what is right

Grace will lead me to heaven

Where I’ll see Your face

And never cease

To thank you for your grace.

Grace abounding, strong and true

That makes me long to be like You

That turns me from my selfish pride

To love the cross on which you died

Grace unending all my days

You’ll give me strength to run this race

And when my years on earth are through

The praise will all belong to You.
