GOD’s Grace and Mercy are Common!

 

GOD’s Grace and Mercy are so common that many times we miss them.

Sometimes it’s because we are expecting some great or powerful experience, but they are in the common things of life. Paul of Tarsus, an Apostle of JESUS, was losing his eyesight and he, a man of great faith prayed three times asking GOD to heal his eyes. But GOD told him “My Grace is sufficient for you.” so Paul lived the rest of his life with limited vision, he had to dictate some of his letters to another person who would write them out. There were probably times he had to be guided by someone where the footing was not good or it was too dark. Paul never complained, his expectation had been for healing but GOD gave him Grace to adjust his life to limited vision, and he did.

 

That is the same for us, many times we miss GOD’s Grace or Mercy because it is not the powerful or miraculous event we expected. This is because of GOD’s Purpose for us at that time, what He is working in our life so that we will become who He created and called us to be.

 

“His Mercy is new every day.” GOD’s Mercy is so common that we do not see it unless we are in some big crisis. Our Salvation was determined before the earth’s foundation was laid. We live by the Power of His SPIRIT that lives in us. He provides for our needs every day. His Good Gifts come to us as needed.

 

JESUS told us we would be tried, tested and persecuted and the Apostles remind us that this is to cause us to grow and mature in GOD’s Purpose and the Gift He has given us so we can fulfill His Call for our life.

 

GOD’s Grace and Mercy are so common that we just do not see them, He told us “I will never leave you or forsake you.” and He told us “Lay down your life and take up your cross daily and follow Me.”

 

It is in the little, common things in life that we walk and live in GOD’s Grace and Mercy. We do not see them because they are so common but without them we would be miserable. It is the little things that make the challenges in life acceptable so that we can face the next day and its problems. It is the moment of peace and quite, someone’s heart felt joyful laugh, the look of awe on a child’s face, the flash of understanding on how to solve a problem, someone unexpectedly helping us, etc.

 

Relax in GOD’s Grace and rest in His Mercy they are everywhere!
