His Grace is Enough

What is it you are facing today?  
What is it that hinders you from moving forward?  
What are you holding onto that you know you need to release to God? 
Can I tell you that God's grace is with you. 
It is His grace
that He bestows upon you everyday
 that will help you  face EVERY situation 
with the peace which surpasses all understanding.  
He knows you.
He knows your fears, your insecurities, you pain, your mess. 
 He is the God that sees you.  He sees your tears.
He sees the chains that nobody else sees.
And, still, in all of the mess, 
He has a plan.

His grace is enough.

The circumstances that have
 brought you where you are today
will create in you 
His divine purposes for tomorrow.
 Through hands of  extravagant love and grace, 
Your  gracious Father has allowed 
you to experience life as you know it
 and because He has allowed it, 
He will use it in ways you cannot even imagine.
I don't know how and I don't know when 
but what I do know is that....

His grace is enough .
  
Just as salvation was offered to you, 
He offers His gift of grace.
 Day after day His grace is there.....
but you have to receive it.  
You have to intentionally choose
 to turn your eyes from your circumstances,
 from those who have hurt you 
and focus on the ONE who can HEAL you!   
You have to embrace this beautiful gift,  
handpicked just for YOU.

This precise grace for your life
 is grace that is just enough
for what you are facing. 
 Not any less, not anymore. Just perfect.

Dear, sister...don't face another moment 
without  allowing His grace
to calm your weary soul.   
It is time to make a choice.
Are you going to continue
to be paralyzed by the sins of  fear and worry 
and be held captive by your circumstances or 
are you  going to reach out 
and take hold of the grace He offers to you?
His grace is what saved you and it is
His grace that will sustain you.
You can do it!  There is hope!

His grace is enough.

Today I am choosing to allow 
His grace to calm my fears,
 to overcome discouragement 
and to renew a right spirit within me. 
Will you join me?  

So let us come boldly to the throne or our gracious God.  There we will receive His mercy and we will find grace to help us when we need it.  Heb 4:16


Let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially that sin that so easily hinders our progress.  And let us run with endurance the race that God has set before us.  We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, on whom our faith depends from start to finish.  Heb 12:1-2
