GOD'S GRACE IS SUFFICIENT
Stella Dhinakaran
Dearly beloved ,
God's grace strengthens us. Apostle Paul says, I can do everything through Him who gives me strength (Philippians 4:13).
In my life, many times, I have walked through the path of tears. At such times, Gods grace sustained me. This loving Lord says, Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matthew 28:20).
What a wonderful promise! So do not be dejected but fasten your eyes on the Lord who is able to strengthen you. Apostle Paul pleaded to the Lord in the midst of his physical weaknesses in answer to which the Lord said, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness" (II Corinthians 12:9). He believed it and then said: For Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong (II Corinthians 12:10). We, the people of the Lord, should also have this faith.
Our Lord Jesus too, when He was distressed with agony before bearing the cross, prayed to the Father saying, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will" (Matthew 26:39). However, it was the will of God that He should accept that cup. Then He was filled with divine strength, accomplished the will of God till the end with patience and said, It is finished. He who went through that path will never forsake you and me.
So we need to hold on to the Almighty God, who is able to redeem us from such afflictions, in order to receive His compassion, mercy and favour. When you surrender yourself to Him saying, Lord! Not my will but let Your will alone be perfected in my life, He will bring you to a broader path and wipe away all your tears.
May the Lord fill each one of you who look up to Him with the strength of His Holy Spirit and with peace, joy and blessings!
God is always with you; He will never forsake you. His grace will strengthen your heart and lead you at all times. He will miraculously solve all your problems and fill your heart with divine comfort and peace.
Prayer:
Loving Lord Jesus,
I look to You for help and take refuge in You for my help comes from You. I surrender myself to You. Lord, always be with me and guide me. Strengthen my heart by Your divine grace. Solve all my problems and fill me with divine comfort and peace.
In Your matchless name I pray,
Amen.
