Grace and Glory seems to be a fitting theme for this time of the year.
“For the Lord God is a sun and shield. The Lord will give Grace and Glory. No good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly” (Psalms 84:11).
Be careful not to decide what is good. Trust God to give to you all things and what He gives is always good. He brings and He gives His greatest blessing and it is yours to have. For He so loved the world that He made it possible for you to have this great blessing right where you are.
You do not have to go to the Temple or to the Church to receive it, just believe and receive and you can have this precious gift. The gift is Jesus. When you take a look at your life, God shows you yourself and he shows you Himself. You are able to see your weakness and His all sufficiency.
What revelation do you get? Let me help you; God is good! And that what is good and that what you have called bad, it’s all because of His Grace. Life’s journey is one of Grace. So, as you go through this season of Grace enjoy all that which in many ways you do not deserve. That’s the Glory extended to you because of His Grace. Hallelujah!
Even though all of your days may not have been bright, you are yet here experiencing another year’s end which is another act of His Grace and Glory. Can you believe it and see it and feel it? Be thankful and receive the greatest gift of them all, Jesus Christ. He is your hope, your Saviour and He is yet full of Grace and will fill your life with Glory. “for the Lord God is a sun and shield” which means He assures you that He will guide and protect you.
Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!!
