God's Grace Is Sufficient

2 Corinthians 12:9-10 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

The Apostle Paul names all these things that he’s “in”.  Yet, he tells us that it’s “in” these things that he has found peace and contentment. He had learned a secret that many believers never get a handle one. He learned the truth that God is just as real and just as powerful in the battles of life as He is during the times of peace and prosperity.

When we come to the place where we can see our trials from God’s perspective, then our whole outlook will be altered. We’ll stop seeing our situation as being hard, harsh and difficult, but  that He’s working out His will in us. We’ll learn to yield to Him.

When we get to that place, then the Lord can work through us and our situation in ways we never imagined.

God’s grace is sufficient for whatever you are going through.
