What we need [2 Corinthians 12 v 1- 10 ]
Are you burdened today? well what can one do with the burdens we carry?, as I write this I thought on the apostle Paul, and what he wrote in 2 Corinthians 11, there he shares with his readers , the things he had ,to cope with. Consider them ,/Hard work,imprisonment,being whipped time without number,facing death continually, being stoned, being shipwrecked, in danger from his own people, the Jews, from robbers,being hungry and thirsty, having not enough clothes to keep him warm. You would think that all those things were enough to cope with,but he goes unto to write of having a daily burden and concern for the churches.If we move unto chapter twelve we also read of the apostle having a thorn in the flesh, [ some bodily ailment ]. What would any of us do if we had to face such things? how did he manage?, the answer is very simple , the grace of God. [2 Corinthians 12v 9]. Whatever we are called to face this day, the way to face it , is by the grace of God, it is all we need., consider the words of the old hymn,/Through many dangers , toils and snares, I have already come, tis grace hath brought me safe thus far , and grace will lead me home. So today ,let us trust God for the grace we need. [ God of all grace we come to you in all our need, grant unto us all the grace we need, for all that we have to face today we ask this in the name of Jesus Amen ]
