Abiding and Abounding Grace

Greetings dear and precious sisters-in-Christ, Definition of Abiding: Lasting a long time; enduring Definition of Abounding: Very plentiful; abundant Definition of Grace: The free and unmerited favor of God, as manifested in the salvation of sinners and the bestowol of blessings. And the response given to Paul - 2 Cor. 12:9 "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness". Can you feel it? Can you taste it? Can you see it? Three simple questions and yet so profound in the asking and seeking. You are in a situation and without knowing how to describe to someone else just what transpired these questions may come up in the questioning. Imagine you are someplace completely out of your comfort zone - you might have gone there on purpose or you were presented with a choice and in the choosing you found yourself here. Yes here where you know that the only response to give or be given is, "well I guess we will have to just pray about it." How many times have you heard or even said that? Today I want to invite you to sit at the feet of Jesus, like Mary did and hear the words spoken to Paul, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." This kind of grace is from the great I AM, the creator, the supreme, the One who created you and me, the One who spoke and it was so. The kind of Grace that is enduring; lasting a long time and also abundant; very plentiful. It is FREE and UNMERITED FAVOR. How can you feel it or taste it or see it when it is so profound? And yet we who trust and believe in Jesus have it forever and ever. My prayer for today - Abba Father, thank you and praise you for your abiding and abounding grace even though we can't feel it or taste it or see it we believe and trust. Lord I pray for each dear and precious sister-in-Christ that from this day forward no matter what is going on in their lives or even around them that they would call upon the name of Jesus and be reminded that it is Your Grace that is sufficient and that Your Grace is an abiding and abounding grace that quiets the whirling mind, that gives peace in the turmoil, and brings joy in the midst of the heartache. In Jesus Name, Amen. Stepping into the abiding and abounding Grace,
