The Grace of God is sufficient

• 

Paul says, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith. And this is not of yourselves, for it is a gift of God.” Ephesians 2:8

And He said to me : “My grace is sufficient for you. For virtue is perfected in weakness.” And so, willingly shall I glory in my weaknesses, so that the virtue of Christ may live within me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

I have learned that there is no need for me to ask God for grace, and I do not need to work hard to receive His grace. I don’t need to start campaigning for a gift. A gift is a gift. You do not need to labor to receive it. So grace is not a wage.

The grace of God is given to all of us, and because of that, we are saved. It is not something I should boast of having. It is God’s gift to all of us. All one needs to do is to find ways in which he/she can express gratitude to God for the gift of grace. Show it by doing good. This will mean you appreciate His gift of grace. Doing evil means you are not grateful that God has gifted you. He has saved you already.

God has rescued me, forgiven me, declared me righteous, adopted me into His family, and called me His own as a gift of grace.

It is because of God’s amazing grace that I can be saved, and there is nothing I can do to earn it. I do not need to win God’s approval.

So if you wish to enjoy His grace, forget about receiving, keep giving because giving is loving.

May God Be with you.
