Grace, Gods Power Freely Given If youve been in the world very long, youve learned that there are very few days that go exactly the way wed like them to go. Thankfully, God is never going to put us in a situation without giving us the ability to be in it with joy. I believe God gives us His special grace for every situation. Heres how I like to define grace: Gods power to help us do whatever it is we need to do. You can have that power today, but you have to receive it, and the only way to receive it is by faith. Romans 12:3 says that God has allotted to each a measure of faith. Ask yourself today, What am I doing with my faith? Are you putting your faith in yourself, or in others, or in your circumstances? Thats not living in grace, thats just living by your own strength and works. And it wont get the job done! But when you release your faith and trust God to do what you cant do, youre putting your faith in Him. Then grace, Gods power, will come through the channel of faith and will enable you to do things that will amaze you and others. Heres my longer definition of grace: Its Gods power coming to us freely, meaning it doesnt cost us anything other than just putting our faith in God, enabling us to do with ease what we could never do on our own with any amount of struggle or effort. Put your faith in God. He wants to give you His grace today. Prayer Starter: God, I know that life wont always go the way I want it to, but I trust in You. By faith, I receive Your grace, the power You have freely given to help me walk through any situation I face today.-via Joyce Meyer Devotional #NBNB
