His grace abounds for me!!
2 Corinthians 9:8
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.
Sometimes when you consider the way humans disregard God in our actions, it is amazing that God does not give us the punishment we deserve because His grace abounds for us.
Humans question or blame God for all their misfortunes but sometimes we are at fault.
For instance, some blame God for allowing global disasters like COVID that caused so much havoc all over the world.
The bible says in Romans 8:28 that
..all things work together for the good of them that love God who are called according to His purpose.
We cannot judge the Almighty God,He knows what is best for us and because His grace abounds for us some of us are still alive.
In spite of the negative effects of COVID we now have:
– Zoom meetings you can join from wherever you are in the world
– Parents with young children who can decide to work from home
– Online buying and selling is more common now, saves you from going through traffic if you do not want to etc.
As a student, worker and ambassador of Christ never take anything for granted, learn to thank and appreciate God for everything.
We are no better than those who lost their lives during the pandemic. You were saved by grace for a purpose.
Like the Psalmist we should
Bless the Lord at all times and His praise should continually be on our lips ( Psalm 34:1)
God be with you
Suggestions for success
1. Thank God for all the many blessings He will bestow on your life in the coming week.
Prayer
Let this song be your prayer and confession
Your grace and mercy
Brought me through
I am living this moment because of you
I want to thank you
And praise you too
Your grace and mercy
Brought me through
Amen
