WHEN GRACE IS ENOUGH

When Grace Is Enough 2 Corinthians 12:8-10 8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. 9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. There are seasons in life when we pray with all our heart for God to remove something. A burden. A struggle. A painful situation. We ask Him again and again, believing surely this will be the moment the door opens and the weight finally lifts. Paul understood that feeling. He said, “For this thing I besought the Lord thrice…” In other words, he earnestly asked God multiple times to take away what was troubling him. But instead of removing it, God answered him with something deeper: “My grace is sufficient for thee.”
