The Grace Gang (Part 2)!

Grace isn't just an enabler that gets the work done with ease, it saves us the troubles and struggles of trying to fix or figure out things ourselves. Grace is the bridge between where we are and where we should be. As interesting and plausible as this is, grace doesn't ever leave us where it meets us but pulls us up where we rightfully belong. Grace is an instructor that teaches us what we need to know and do to get to where we're destined for (Titus 2: 11-12) Grace doesn't subtract from us; it adds to us, taking off the place of personal efforts. Does this mean one should no longer make efforts or aspire to a better life? Not at all. Grace simply amplifies our efforts and deliverers higher and better result so no man can boast in their self absorbed delusion of being self-made. Grace opens up access to us to showcase our worth and then attracts the right people who'd place real value on our services and then patronise us. Grace is an equal opportunity leveler. Grace qualifies us for what we originally weren't qualified for. Paul says, "But God’s amazing grace has made me who I am!  And his grace to me was not fruitless. In fact, I worked harder than all the rest,  yet not in my own strength but God’s, for his empowering grace is poured out upon me" (1 Cor 15:10 TPT). Grace makes and enables us to function effectively in what it makes of us. Therefore, if you're having struggles in any area, plug in to God's enabling grace and see yourself flourishing.
