Where Our Strength Ends, God's Grace Begins

Two years ago, Lori received a strand of pearls from some dear friend of her. Since that time, She have been intrigued with pearls. So this past week she did some research on how a pearl becomes a pearl. To ensure that she was not falling for any urban legends, She asked Russ McMillan, her resident Marine Biologist, for assistance. Russ explained that a beautiful pearl begins as a fragment of broken shell, a sand grain, or even a parasite. Such an object enters an oyster’s shell and irritates its soft tissue. The irritant then gets covered and strengthened with layers of mother-of-pearl or nacre (NAY-ker). Over the course of time, a beautiful pearl develops. Similarly, the Bible teaches that every human starts out as an irritant. We are enemies of God, dead in our trespasses and sins.  Yet, by God’s amazing grace, those of us who believe in Christ are declared positionally righteous. Slowly but surely, God then envelops us in Himself and practically transforms us into beautiful followers who reflect His beauty.

    When tasks are so heavy and your strength is no longer enough two carry them, don’t give up, where our strength ends the grace of God begins.  As we go grow older the strength becomes less, every day while getting up we feel so tired and feel how we will carry on the day. But with hope and will power if we get up and start our day thinking of God everything becomes easy and we are able to do out duties. But sometimes we require others help to carry on our duties especially in old age. So we should try to help the older generation in whatever possible way we can and they will bless us which will help us in our day to day duties.

    God is always there behind us to protect us and show the way and if keep faith on Him he will lead us the way. We should leave everything in His hands and our work goes on smoothly. When things turn out bad and your strength is longer enough to carry them.  You must never give up, because when your strength ends, Gods strength begins.

Take Seven Times Daily

Seven times a day I praise you. Psalm 119:164 One day when missionary physician Harold Adolph was walking through his house, he saw a verse on the wall of his daughter’s room. It was Proverbs 17:22: “A cheerful heart is good medicine” (NIV). Adolph thought, “If only I could harness the secret of that cheerfulness and share it with my patients, a great deal of physical and spiritual suffering could be avoided.” Another verse came to mind—Psalm 119:164: “Seven times a day I praise You.” That verse, he thought, was like a prescription off a medicine bottle. Most patients resist taking a medicine seven times a day, which is why pharmaceutical companies develop pills to be taken only once or twice daily. But Dr. Adolph suggests we try the remedy exactly as God prescribed it. You might set your phone alarm to remind yourself to praise God seven times throughout this day. The goal isn’t legalism, but to learn to praise God continuously and to keep our hearts cheerful all day
