2 Corinthians 12:9 (the message)

"My grace is enough; it's all you need. My strength comes into its own in your weakness."


God's grace is probably the most beautiful and powerful force in your life. With a fierce loyalty, she is behind you, holding you in the day to day of living and surviving this life. And more present than you can imagine. Maybe we don't realize grace's magnitude or the reality of her holding us together every moment of the day. If we didn't have God's constant and perfect presence, which He divinely designs for the situation we are facing, I'm sure as I can be that our minds and bodies would break under the pressure and heartache we experience and watch on this earth.

And it comes in all shapes and forms. I think that God sends us grace however He can get it to us. Sometimes He sends us very large doses of His grace in human form. They hold us and save us on a daily/weekly/monthly basis. God is kind and sends them (husband/friend/parent) to us when we need them at the exact right time. He may send us a stranger to give us a word of encouragement or even just a smile on a crummy day; He may drop a scripture into you heart, one that you hadn't thought of in a while, and it may just save the day for you. However God's grace gets to you, receive it, immerse yourself in it and relish the treasure that you have been so lavishly and wonderfully given. And don't worry; every morning ask God for His wonderful grace and it will get from heaven to you in an instant; it will get you through each moment of your day.
