God's Grace is Enough

"But He has answered me, 'My grace is enough for you: for power is at full stretch in weakness.' It is, then, about my weaknesses that I am happiest of all to boast, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me;" - 2 Corinthians 12, 9


There are times when the one thing we want is the one thing we never get. When we want something so deeply we usually pray and wait but we don't receive an answer, or at least no the answer that we expect it. What if God says no? What if our request is denied?

When God says no to us is maybe because that thing that we want so deeply is not according God's plan for us and it is when we really need to trust Him more that ever: "Yes, I know what plans I have in mind for you, Yahweh declares, plans for peace, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope" - Jeremiah 29, 11. When we don't receive exactly what we want, we could remember that: "A human heart makes the plans, Yahweh gives the answer" - Proverbs 16, 1.

Sometimes He is just trying to tell us "My grace is enough for you". Today ask God to release your grip on all the things you are holding on to, and that prevent you from returning to His passionate embrace. Give up on your fears about others walking away and taking their love with them because God's love is eternal and He always be with you: "Yahweh has appeared to me from afar; I have loved you with and everlasting love and so I still maintain my faithful love for you." - Jeremiah 31, 3.



Dear God, do not allow that nothing hold me but You.
help me to always give You all my faith, 
all my hope, and all my love
because Your grace is enough for me. 
Amen.

God Works While We Wait

"W ait for the Lord, be strong and let your heart take courage; yes, wait for the Lord. " - Psalm 27, 14 Being honest, we all hate to wait. That is because most of us consider waiting like wasting time. But it's not so with our God, we just need to remember that good things are worth waiting and God only wants good things for us: " If you, then, evil as you are, know how to give your children what is good, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him! " - Matthew 7, 11. God uses waiting to change us, He wants us to learn how to follow Him and put down all our doubts, worries and fear. While we wait we need to relinquish the control to Him in order to experience His love and peace, and remember that even when we are unable to see what He is doing, God is always working on the events to accomplish His purposes for our lives. We only need to trust in His unfailing love for us, knowing that waiting is never wasted when we...

Shines In The Spot God Has Placed You

"You are light for the world. A city built on a hill-top cannot be hidden" - Matthew 5, 14 Being a light sounds great right? but what if shining illuminates our vulnerabilities and insecurities?  the true is that trying to shine on our own can be frustrating and exhausting.

Following His will : Trust that God will lead you in his ways. " T each me, Lord, your ways, that I may rely on your faithfulne...

Repaired With Gold

"He heals the broken-hearted, and bandages their wounds" - Psalm 147, 3. I felt like if a piece of my heart was ripped from my chest leaving a big hole on it; like a wrecking ball has swooped in and destroyed all between us... the us that was now becoming just me again. All those long talks about our future together just vanished... I felt the deep and hurtful impact of his words ripping apart what I thought would be permanent. It was not just about losing him... it was about losing connection to all those dreams for tomorrow that now would never be. My heart was broken and it needed to be repaired. But how? I needed to choose the best method to repair it, a method that not only will heal my heart but also protect it of future rejections as well. I felt pain, and I needed to stop seeing pain as the enemy because the pain was just the indicator that brokenness exists. Numbing the pain never goes to the source of the real issue to make us healthier. Its like trying to...
