Today Reminder - 23 Augustus 2012 (Grace)


My prayer for you for today is that you will live in grace, peace and mercy each day, in Jesus name.

2 John 1:3
Grace, mercy, and peace, which come from God the Father and from Jesus Christ—the Son of the Father—will continue to be with us who live in truth and love.

Grace – Saved by grace. The Thesaurus explains grace as kindness, kindliness, decency, favour, mercy, mercifulness, charity, benevolence, clemency, leniency, and reprieve. To follow Jesus and fully trust Him will give you grace, mercy and peace each day as you journey through your current season in life. Grace ultimately comes from God, because His grace saved us from self-destruction.

Funny enough, mercy also means grace. Mercy is also compassion, pity, clemency, forgiveness, kindness, sympathy, humanity, understanding, generosity, leniency, benevolence, forbearance and grace.

Peace is also calm, quiet, stillness, tranquillity, silence, harmony and serenity.

Now let’s look at those three words again. (Grace) Kindness, kindliness, decency, favour, mercy, mercifulness, charity, benevolence, clemency, leniency, reprieve, (Mercy) compassion, pity, clemency, forgiveness, sympathy, humanity, understanding, generosity, forbearance, (Peace) calm, quiet, stillness, tranquillity, silence, harmony, serenity, which come from God the Father and from Jesus Christ—the Son of the Father—will continue to be with us who live in truth and love.

My dear friend, to have Jesus in your life is not just a three word lifestyle. No, it is much more than that. We are so quick to accept a moderate Jesus life, when living with Him in you is far greater than you can imagine.  You cannot put God in box, He created the universe to give us a glimpse of His immensity. We cannot even see the whole universe, let alone summarize God. 

It is so important to we bring our lives in line with His will and His word, because in God lies an unlimited wealth of grace, mercy, peace and strength. In Him alone will you fine true freedom.

Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus

Cheers
