My grace is enough. Learn to ask and believe that I will provide the grace you need each day. When you are struggling or slipping into old patterns of thinking and behaving, then just reach out for grace. Take that first step, and you will find that My grace is there to meet you. I will help you each step of the way.
At first it feels like you are trudging through mud, because the old patterns are easier; the groove is well worn. However, with My grace, we will set a new course, and you will eventually feel lighter and freer as you step onto the new path. My path always leads to life and freedom.
When you get to the point where you only care about what I want, it is then we become one and your heart will flood with joy. For that's how you touch My heart. My Son modeled a life of surrender, and that's when you look most like Him. Take the next step of faith...grace will be there to meet you.
Hebrews 4:16 Amplified Bible (AMP)
Therefore let us [with privilege] approach the throne of grace [that is, the throne of God’s gracious favor] with confidence and without fear, so that we may receive mercy [for our failures] and find [His amazing] grace to help in time of need [an appropriate blessing, coming just at the right moment].
Matthew 11:28-30 The Message (MSG)
28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
Psalm 119:59-60 Common English Bible (CEB)
59 I’ve considered my ways and turned my feet back to your laws.
60 I hurry to keep your commandments—I never put it off!
