GRACE IS SUFFICIENT

Yesterday the blog was on tough love.  Today is 

finding grace to handle the things that the Lord 

doesn't remove from our lives.  There are things

in life that we need to endure and deal with.  

We live in a generation that tends to close

the door and start over verses enduring.  

For those who have decided to stick it 

out and endure, find there are many 

lesson learned while traveling this

path that could never be learned 

otherwise. 

There is also the rude awaking of 

realizing that during walking this  

journey with the loved ones there  

will be times decisions are made 

causing deep pain even to our own

lives.  

There will be times, during the journey 

a person has to give up their own pride.  

They have to learn how to accept the 

fact that others are going to misunderstand 

and many times make accusations about 

them that are not true and are very painful.  

Keeping the focus on the goal of getting 

a person to ultimately heal from an addiction

or anger they are experiencing is far more 

important than others viewing us in a 

certain way.  

Once you are at the end of this journey, the

time will come when you can look back

and view the strength gained during the 

process is far more valuable and honorable

than the pride given up to bring each of you 

to the point of ultimate healing 

May the power of God rest upon you 

as you endure this journey. 

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.

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.

II Corinthians 12:9-10
