Grace just grace
The most blessed time in my life is the time when I realize , I can do nothing..none of my efforts are successful. Because this is the time when our Lord begins. This time is the doorstep of a "God experience"- I am going to feel my Lord's touch.
When we are driven by our own skills and efforts,we never accept the presence of God ,we become proud and we glorify ourself. There is no surrender but the I in us works. In times we fail, in times we realize that there is something's that we cannot attain by our efforts,it is these times that we surrender to accept the lord of our life. A personal encounter with our loving lord is the most blessed moment and achievement in our life..this is what grows us to the eternal life and to the everlasting aim of us as children of God.
Always in such times let us remember our Jesus words... "but now I am going to him who sent me.None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’6 Rather, you are filled with grief because I have said these things."- john16:5-6
Yes let us not get worried about the trials or traps or sadness or luxuries around us in the world..but in such times let us seek..."where did Jesus go and how?"
This answer gives us answer to our life too..our situations too..
That is what St. Paul says " Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:7-10
Yes God's grace is sufficient for us...not by our efforts but by His grace, loving grace that we are saved...
Hence if we are now in a totally shattered situation..then be ready ...to experience God's love..which surpasses all our knowledge...his amazing Grace..
33 I have said this to you, so that in me you may have peace. In the world you face persecution. But take courage; I have conquered the world - John 16:33
Amen in Jesus name
To be always filled in Holy Spirit
When elizabeth heard mothers greetings she was filled with holy spirit and she was able to understand that it is The Lord that is inside mothers womb and that mary is the mother of god. Elizabeth was able to train the virtue of humility to reduce herself for lords presence and aƧlaimed her blessed realizing the importance of faith in accomplishment of gods word thru marys belief.
When we stand infront of our crosses in gods love without leaving Jesus ..he gives us mother to us and us to mother..to take her home..thus to be in constant presence of lords love..all time..with a great mother like mary with us..who followed jesus each second silently. This mother will always interceede for us in our weaknesses to Jesus, even without our knowledge . She requests jesus to fill us with new vine of holy spirit. So that always in our life we are able to be renewed and serve others without fail..without running out of our annoinment..we are able to grow towards the completness of Jesus giving Jesus to all, lord gives us..just as Mary who gave Jesus to the world..in the humility of stable..pondering always in her heart,fixing her eyes on Jesus face.
