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.

Be Satisfied

 "Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart . " - PSalm 37:4. I was single for a long time, I remember how much I struggled at that time, because my soul was not satisfied, something was missing, after years and years of praying, the Lord finally gave me an amazing husband the sweetest and kindest man. But before that happened God helped me to be satisfied, fulfilled and content by being loved only by Him.  Today I found a beautiful prayer by St. Anthony of Padua, and I could not avoid to share it.  "Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone, To have a deep soul relationship with another, To be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But to a Christian, God says, "No, not until you are satisfied, Fulfilled and content with being loved by Me alone, With giving yourself totally and unreservedly to Me. With having an intensely personal and unique relationship with Me alone. Discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction to b...

Why Should We Pray?

"O ur fearlessness towards Him consists in this, that if we ask anything in accordance with his will he hears us. And if we know that He listens to whatever we ask Him, we know that we already possess whatever we have asked of Him. " 1 John 5, 14-15. Praying is the way we could communicate with God, and it help us to bring us closer to Him. There is not something better than spend a one-on-one time with the our loved Father, who knows all our secrets and loves us no matter what. " He is close to all who call upon him, all who call on him from heart " - Psalms 145, 18. By praying we could have access to Divine help when we need it most. Every time we experience worries, anxieties and fear we could ask God's help having the certainty that He will always helps us. " Never worry about anything; but tell God all your desires of every kind in prayer and petition shot through gratitude, and the peace of god which is beyond our understanding will...

"Give thanks in all circumstances; this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus." - 1 Thessalonians 5, 18. Dear Lord, please increase my thankfulness.
