His grace is Enough
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9
Today went swimming together with my gor gor. While swimming, somehow i will always remember the lesson that i learnt from God when i was swimming a few years back. And this lesson is always so realistic to my life and our lives- that our lives is just like a race marked down with many different obstacles,trials and persecutions for us to go through, and it requires perseverance and determination to complete the race. The more i swim, i found myself gets tired and wanting to give up. But what kepts me through, was the desire of finishing the race no matter what- even i may have to take a longer time to finish it which is similar to our lives. Yeah even i may take a longer path or a more difficult to finish the race, i have to complete it by enduring all the hardships and the trainings that were there meant to train and mould me to become the person that He desires.
Talking about hardships, i believe that God had long started placing me in those tough times in my life- losing my father,poverty,hunger,humiliation,betrayal, disappointments,shame,humility and etc. I believe the work that Christ has started in me, he will complete it till the day that He comes. I hope the ones that are suffering or thinks that they are suffering in their lives, that they will not lose hope but continue to make Christ as the hope of our lives. We are all warned that, the power of this world lies in the hands of the devil- one who is waiting like a lion waiting to proar on its prey. We are his preys, and for sure we will be constantly attacked by him. He uses the weakest and the injured areas of our lives, to plant lies in our mind. He allows temptations to come in for us to be attracted to it as our flesh is weak and is always in conflict with the Holy Spirit's desire. And i find it so true in my life, that i found myself easily to believe his lies and always ended up in condemnation,hurts and disappointment especially when i come face to face to relationship and frienfdship issues.Somehow we will always end up in a cycle of the consequences of sins, finding ourselves not been able to come back to reality or face God or surrender to Him. i also realised that when we choose not to put Christ as the Lordship of our lives, we will be easily deceived by the lies that Satan put in us and fall into his traps.
I realised that once this race has started there is no turning back, all i have to do is to trust in Christ that He will keep me through and preserve me till the end, through HIs unfailing love and amazing grace. Grace is something that i found it irresistable, and His grace is always ever sufficient to keep me through whenever i realised i had sinned against HIm in some ways. He will always still be there listening to my cries and bring healing to my inner being so that i can stand up again. Even though sometimes we may not want to accept His grace because we feel unworthy and filthy, His grace is always there made available for all of us- You and me. Just wana encourage you who are reading this post now,to continue to be steadfast in your faith. Whereas for ones that have not receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour, i hope that through this post will help you the reality and the vulnerability of life, and you may consider to invite Christ into your life because you will soon realise that grace is all you need in this world to get out of our miry clay. And definitely His grace is sufficient for everyone of us.
good night and God bless.
