2 Corinthians 12:9
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.
I don’t know, but I have a feeling I’m not the only one that needed this gentle reminder today. I was thinking about my family, and the craziness of the past couple eight years…and how true this message really is. At my lowest points, there was a gentle peace that settled in my spirit, that even in the face of trial, tribulation, rejection, loneliness and suffering, God’s grace was evident, teaching me, strengthening me and bringing me comfort and consolation.
If you are on that rollercoaster of life…or stuck in the valley…or on the mountaintop…He is there. He is aware. He loves you, and comes alongside you with His all sufficient grace.
Beautiful and timely reminder…thank you
Thanks for the comment Greg. I’m always glad to know someone else benefits from the same God whispers that I do.
Blessings.

My sister and I talked today…how God’s grace…has kept her upright through the trials of a very ill husband…love the drawing…
Oh, thank you, Marilyn. His grace has carried us through so much! We have learned to trust and rest in Him because of His faithfulness. I am saying a little prayer for your sister and her husband.

Thanks for prayers. Had a good day until this afternoon. Do not know exactly what happened. Think I am just tired, so I went to bed and plugged in a movie. Felt great to do that for a change. 🙂 Feel better tonight, so God answered your prayers. Thanks again and God Bless, SR
Glad to hear it, SR. It’s good to take the time to just kick back and relax once in awhile. The heat just completely zaps my strength during these long summer days. He does give rest to the weary, Thank God.
