GOD’S GRACE IS GREATER
Max Lucado, pastor and author wrote:
“One stumble does not define or break a person. Though you failed, God’s love does not. Face your failures with faith in God’s goodness. He tells you what he told Joshua: “Arise, go. You and all this people to the land which I am giving” (Joshua 1:2 NKJV). There is no condition in that covenant. God’s Promised Land offer does not depend on your perfection; it depends on his.
In God’s hands, no defeat is a crushing defeat. “The steps of good men are directed by the Lord. He delights in each step that they take. If they fall, it isn’t fatal. For the Lord holds them with his hand” (Psalm 37:23-24 TLB). Miss this truth and miss your new beginning. You must believe that God’s grace is greater than your failures.”
“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.” (The Message) Jesus
