my grace

Opening Prayer:  Lord Jesus, in the end all any of us really need is your grace.  Oh we might convince ourselves that we need so much more than that, but when it comes right down to it, your grace is all we need.  Help us to live as if that were true.  Amen.

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9

Journal: Is God’s grace sufficient for you right now?  Honestly?  Why or why not?

Reflection: My grace is sufficient for you.  No, really, it is!  So stop trying to earn my love and favor.  Stop trying to make it on your own.  Stop beating yourself up and wearing yourself out.  Stop trying to arrange your life in such a way that you won’t need me quite so much.  My grace really is sufficient for you.  It is all you need. 

Prayer

Closing Prayer: Help me to let your grace be enough for me today, Lord Jesus.  For if I really believe your grace is enough, it changes everything.  It totally changes the way I live my life.
