Living for God in a Godless Society Part 4નમૂનો

GRACE IN THE MOMENT

Many times we see the dangerous places coming before we get there. It is generally our natural reaction to avoid them if we can or to ask the Lord to remove them. The interesting thing about the Lord is that He often wants us to experience those dangerous places (“trials,” as James calls them) so that He can meet us IN that hard space (fire, lion’s den, etc.). The trials deepen our faith, increase our dependence on Him, and remind us that He alone is God.

Never forget- the grace of God is sufficient. For every moment. Don’t worry about what tomorrow brings. His grace comes in the moment that you stand firm in your faith, knowing that He stands alongside you through every insult, hardship, and fire. Even as the lions charge, His power is made perfect in your weakness.

Ask Yourself:

-Reflect on Day 1’s question again- what am I afraid to face right now?

-Why am I afraid? Because I am weak? Alone? Incapable?

-How does fear change to faith in God’s presence?

Pause to Pray: Lord, this is hard, but I praise you for the trials I experience and that they are transforming me and deepening my faith. Thank you for your sufficiency- your presence, your grace, your love, your power. They are all enough for me. Amen.

Take a Next Step: God is with you all day today. Be mindful to look for His hand at work and praise Him for it!
