“Now, Is the Grace of God”
II Corinthians 6:1
Thank God, His grace is sufficient for the present. I don’t have to worry about yesterday, it is gone. I don’t have to worry about tomorrow, it is not here yet. But today, I must draw from it, to be my best for Jesus.
I pray in panic sometimes, when I don’t know what to do. I pray much when I’m hurting; I pray absolutely when I’m angry, and I even pray when I’m reluctant to pray. But most of all may I be found praying and trusting God for others’ sake, and also those precious times when I just stop everything, just to thank Him.
There are troubles all around, decisions to make as a missionary; lives are falling apart, the devil is raging, souls are dying, Gods people are negligent; I am perplexed and overwhelmed, I must draw from His grace now. I must trust in His grace and provision; I am dry in my thinking many times: Too many things are happening at once, it is hard to maintain. Grace, O grace, I need you now!
May I extend myself in the grace of God, that nothing can be seen or heard of myself, but Jesus and His love.
“Grace”
There’s grace a-plenty in His coffer
Grace a-plenty, He does offer.
Grace for work, grace for love;
Grace for reaching the throne above.
Grace to guide us straight to Him,
When we pray and repent of all sin.

Weekly Memory Verses: Ephesians 2:1-5
1 ¶And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
4 ¶But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
