THE ESSENCE OF GRACE Its very common for a christian to tell a chronic sinner about grace and how much God loves them neither is it quite uncommon to hear christians pray and say "lord we thank you for your grace and mercies" its not uncommon to hear them quote "the steadfast love of the lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end" how ever when they fall into sin when they offend God they totall ignore the concept of Grace and are quick to quote "shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?" really it leaves me wondering we act like grace is for only those who have never heard about christ before? No grace it for every one of us God know there'll be times we'll be weak, there'll be times our flesh will pull us strongly and we'll yield because its usually the easy thing to do yes that's the point of grace yes the moment you fall is when his grace his most available for you if you'll just yield yourself to the pull of grace and let the master heal your brokenness. Until we all yield to him in our brokeness i'll keep wondering; Why are we so afraid of our brokenness? It's not like ignoring it will make it go away. It isn't some make-believe monster under our bed that we can outgrow in time. It is a very real cancer, an affliction, that plagues every human heart. We are broken people. That's the whole point of grace! How can we openly praise God for something we blatantly deny we need?

  1. His Grace is sufficient for us, when weakness,lack,sin is, the grace of God abounds much. May we come in term with this in times of distress even in our brokeness as his children
