TOTD, Dec.06

Receive the Grace of God

If you are frustrated, it is because you are trying to make things happen on your own. It is not because you don't have any faith --- the reason is that you have stopped receiving from God, His grace.

But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me.
--- 2 Corinthians 12:9


My own reflection on this Thought:
* It's true: it's really frustrating and tiring to make things happen on our own. Because many things go in other directions. One thing that we should remember that our life will not be the same again by the time we received God as our savior. So, we need to remember that it's His will, not ours, that should be done. Thy will be done. That's when we become less stressful and less frustrated. Life won't be too complicated anymore. (-fon-)
