More Grace

But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: 'God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble’. ~James 4:6

Grace!  Undeserved and unmerited favor from the Lord.  Grace is blessings that I did not earn.  Grace is strength and power to do both seek and do His will.  Grace is the time he extends me to humble myself before Him.  The time He has given me to repent and receive mercy.  Grace is reconciliation.  Grace is healing.  Grace is His peace. Grace is Christ Himself and He is more than sufficient to meet all of my needs.

I woke up this morning with a serious case of anxiety.  I do not know why it is present.  I just know that as I pulled the covers off my head I desperately wanted to crawl back in.  To hide myself from this day.  Anxiety is physically painful and I hate it, but God gives me more grace.

He gives me grace by way of wisdom to remind me to stay humble and ask the Lord to supply what I need.  Instead of hiding under the covers I can hide in Him.  He gives me sound mound to seek Him and cast my cares upon Him.  He gives me grace to endure and press my way through knowing that I will conquer this through Christ Jesus.  The Overcomer lives in me so He gives me power to speak life over myself and to rebuke the enemy.

His grace is the covering of peace and comfort in times of my distress.  His grace is His love.  His grace completes the work and perfects me.  I yield to His grace and breathe it in with all gratitude.  Thank You Father for giving me more grace.  In Jesus name I pray. Amen
