December 9 - Grace Upon Grace

Grace for the Moment by Max Lucado

I have learned to be satisfied with the things I have and with everything that happens. Philippians 4:11

Test this question: What if God’s only gift to you were His grace to save you. Would you be content? You beg Him to save the life of your child. You plead with Him to keep your business afloat. You implore Him to remove the cancer from your body. What if His answer is, “My grace is enough.” Would you be content?  

You see from heaven’s perspective, grace is enough. If God did nothing more than save us from hell, could anyone complain?... Having been given eternal life, dare we grumble at an aching body? Having been given heavenly riches, dare we bemoan earthly poverty?...

If you have eyes tor read these words, hands and fingers to use to type on the keyboard, the means to have a computer and internet connectivity, He has already given you grace upon grace.
