Terrible Morning
It was a terrible morning and I was an out of control mom: hollering, angry, enraged. I stomped back into the house feeling furious. And then, the verse –
?“But He gives us more and more grace ([a]power of the Holy Spirit, to meet this evil tendency and all others fully). That is why He says, God sets Himself against the proud and haughty, but gives grace [continually] to the lowly (those who are humble enough to receive it).” (Amplified Bible)
What a promise! The good news is that I am a terrible mother but it is Christ in me who helps me in my failing and weakness. I continually come up against myself and I am continually given grace — if I will recognize and accept it. That is grace EVERY time..This is the gospel I must preach to myself. This is the gospel that we share with the world.
I can so relate, Dee. Thanks for the wonderful reminder of grace!
