1 Corinthians 12:9 - That Grace... “Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.” (1 Corinthians 12:9 NLT)
by Chris
...it looks good on you.
God’s grace matches any outfit, any lifestyle, and any person.
The grace of God covers our sins and shortcomings and prevents us from receiving penalties for our actions we deserve.
However, God’s grace is also an active power. A power that enables us to endure what otherwise would take us out.
Have you ever witnessed two people go through the exact same situation; one seemingly goes through with ease while the other visibly struggles?
That’s the power of God’s grace.
God has given you grace to persevere and overcome certain situations that nobody else would be able to endure.
Friend, reflect on your past and current situations and identify the presence of God’s grace. Realize that what you overcame would’ve resulted in destruction or failure for anybody else.
Don’t feel guilty, or get boastful...give thanks to God for His grace and wear it with pride.
His grace sure looks good on you ;)
Lets pray...
“God thank you for the grace in my life. I know it is only by the power of your grace I have made it this far. Empower me Father to continue to walk in the power of grace in my life to encourage others to do the same. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.”
