Good Morning Beauties!
“Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go,
for to you I entrust my life.” Psalm 143:8 (NIV)
Grace - the unmerited favor of God. We are saved by grace through faith. It’s not our works that reconcile us back to our gracious Father, but only the redeeming work of Jesus. I don’t know about you, but it will take me a lifetime to fully comprehend this amazing grace. It’s so simple, and yet so complex and hard to believe - we have to trust.
The grace of God was vital to our salvation, but what about the grace we receive daily? I approached Jesus this morning with thanksgiving and worship. I then asked how he wanted to use me today. The first thing I think of is works - what can I do for him? Immediately following my question was his response, “I just want you to be with me. How I use you will naturally flow from your time spent with me.” The doing must learn to submit to the being. Serving the Lord in our purpose is a great and right thing, but it must not take priority over our relationship with Jesus. Selah.
Have you ever experienced a greater peace than being in the presence of Jesus? If we trust his love is unconditional, despite our sin, we will run into his presence every chance we get. Because Jesus lives in us, his presence is with us at all times. I’m referring to intentionally seeking him and spending quality time with him. There we find love, healing, acceptance, and overwhelming peace.
Do you find yourself looking for ways to serve Jesus or seeking Jesus to grow your relationship? Does your sin keep you from seeking him? Selah.
By grace we are saved and by grace we live and find peace.
