Scripture says in Romans 5:20 that “the more we see our sinfulness, the more we see God’s abounding grace.” To abound is to have a surplus, an abundance, an extravagant portion.

Should the fish in the Pacific worry that it will run out of ocean?  No, why? Because the ocean abounds with water. Need the lark be anxious about finding room in the sky to fly?  No, the sky abounds with space.  So should the Christian worry that the cup of mercy will run empty?  He may. For he may not be aware of God’s abounding grace. Are you?

Are you aware that the cup God gives you overflows with mercy?  Or are you afraid your cup will run dry? Or your mistakes are too great for God’s grace? God is not a miser with his grace. Your cup may be low on cash or clout, but it is overflowing with mercy!

In Jeremiah 32:27 God says, “I am the Lord, the God of every person on the earth, nothing is impossible for me.”

We need to hear that God is still in control. We need to hear that it’s not over until he says so. We need to hear that life’s mishaps and tragedies are not a reason to bail out. Corrie ten Boom used to say, “When the train goes through a tunnel and the world gets dark, do you jump out? Of course not. You sit still and trust the engineer to get you through.”

The way to deal with discouragement? The cure for disappointment? Go back and read the story of God. Read it again and again. Be reminded that you aren’t the first person to weep and you aren’t the first person to be helped. Read the story and remember the story is yours!

Jesus’ love does not depend upon what we do for him.  Not at all. In the eyes of the King, you have value simply because you are. You don’t have to look nice or perform well.  Your value is inborn. Period.

Think about that for just a minute. You’re valuable just because you exist. Not because of what you’ve done, but simply because you are. Remember that, the next time you are left bobbing in the wake of someone’s steamboat ambition. Or some trickster tries to hang a bargain basement price tag on your self-worth. Remember that, the next time someone tries to pass you off as a cheap buy.

Just think about the way Jesus honors you—and smile. I do.  Because I know, I don’t deserve a love like that. None of us do!

People may wonder why God allows temptation in the first place, but He often uses our desires and bad habits to reveal His power and grace in our lives, and form our character to be more like Jesus Christ. Dr. Erwin Lutzer describes how renewing our mind and restraining our emotions, and keeping current accounts with God will equip us to fight temptation and sin.

Do you remember a time when as a child you got lost?  You felt the paralyzing fear of looking around and failing to see the north star of your parents’ strong presence. You were lost. These moments of lostness can leave a pit in your stomach and bring fear to your soul.

What is even worse is coming to a point in life when we realize that we’ve lost our way as a human being. We’re not sure why we are on this planet. We have no sense of our purpose.

It is in these moments we look to God, the Master Storyteller, and discover that the best way to understand our story is to listen to His. As we understand God’s story and where we fit within it, the haze begins to clear and our story begins to make sense. There’s more to your story my friend.
