Evidence of God's Grace

If we were to pause for a second and consider the grace that saved us, that fact alone is enough to bring us to our knees in worship of the One True God. Taken a step further: considering our own individual life situations and circumstances, pause and reflect on the present-tense evidence of God's grace.

Psalm 139:1-3 says, "O Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up. You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways."

Powerful words from Scripture to remind us in the simplicity of our humanness that God is ever-present, all the time, and intimately acquainted with us in the inward details of our thinking, feeling and being.

To me, that fact alone is evidence of His grace, and I don't ever want to lose sight of it!

Today, I invite you to get still and quiet with me. Consider the God you love and serve and allow more of Him to invade your thinking and feeling. Let Him show you the error in your ways, the stink in your thinking. After all, that too is grace. He loved us with Calvary's Cross! He is therefore committed to molding and shaping us into the image and likeness of Himself in and through the Son, which is all the more evidence of His grace in our lives.

He sees, He hears and He knows us. He is with us always, which means, we are never ever alone. In or out of distress He is near.

Be intentional today to see new evidence of God's loving care and faithfulness on display in the details of your life.
