I read this tonight on Facebook, from Walk in the Word...
"By choosing to complain, by clinging to the idol of a perfect life...you are flushing away the grace of God."
This is deep, but so true. I can sooooo relate. Whenever hard times, inconveniences, hurts, disappointments come and last but not least - a biggie, comparing myself to others.... thinking if I do this, or do that, if I save enough money, if I work out all the problems for other people, trying to make the "pefect life". What I am ultimately doing, is flushing away, getting rid of, avoiding, God's Grace for me in hard times. Ever notice, how each person's grace is different from another's? I mentioned to my mother today about an instance, not knowing how this person as survived such a tragedy. Like my mother told me, God's grace is different for everyone.
If I could just learn, appreciate and thank God for the inconveniences and disappointments in my life. KNOWING, that God's grace is sufficient for ME. Custom made!
