Preparing As He Prepared

Two Passages:

"When they finished everything required by God in the Law, they returned to Galilee and their own town, Nazareth. There the child grew strong in body and wise in spirit. And the grace of God was on him." [Luke 2:39-40]

"So he went back to Nazareth with them, and lived obediently with them. His mother held these things dearly, deep within herself. And Jesus matured, growing up in both body and spirit, blessed by both God and people." [Luke 2:51-52]

  • Jesus was preparing for something
  • He grew in body and spirit
  • Grace was with Him; He was blessed by God & People.
  • He returned to His hometown each time
  • As a child, He understood Grace.
This has painted a clear picture of how I am supposed to grow in life - In God's Grace [Jesus, Son Of God]. I am supposed to grow in grace no matter what - at all costs - for all anything is worth...It's all about Grace. God's grace came alive to me in 2006, [Circa, Grace & Favour Conference With Joseph Prince], and since then - things have been different. I don't feel the need to measure up like I use to...trying to make my wrongs right by some cheap magic or feeling like I could fulfill all that God asked me to do and do it without failing...but the truth set me free - God's grace gave me the license to live free again - just as Jesus intended for me to live...and its not all fairies and rainbows, but Jesus came to reconcile me to the Father and it has happened! So why should I devise my own way into God's throne? No! The 'boldy-enter-type-grace' has replaced the 'God-don't-strike-me-down?' type...This good news could go on and on...But Know This: Jesus Loves You - And His Grace Is Sufficient. Friend, Its Mightily Sufficient.
