Grace - A better mixture for concrete

My prayer this morning while driving on the usual route to work, was that God would help me overcome my weaknesses.

I was being reminded of the struggles I had during my teenage days. Tough and seemly impossible to overcome those weaknesses but yet God was faithful. Again and again, I failed, yet God never gave up on me!

In my mind I agrued with Him, I was young and ignorance those days. But now, I have grown matured both in age and spirituality issues. I thought to myself I should be able to cope and overcome weaknesses with ease and should not have failed.

Suddenly, a concrete truck drove passed me. And on the truck it has a large print of it company name and slogan. I have not seen this company truck before. On it printed in huge bright green color “GRACE – a better mixture for concrete”.

At that moment, tears began to roll. It was not like lightning striking me or a loud thunder awaking me. It’s just a simple, quite, gentle, and overwhelming in me. I knew it was the Lord! Overcoming and falling into weaknesses, do not depend on my age or spirituality. It’s depending on the GRACE of God!!!!!

I need the GRACE for a better concrete (my Christian living). I need GRACE to build a better building for the Lord. It does not matter if I keep failing due to my weaknesses as long as I always returned with a repentance heart. It does not matter if I am a matured Christian and yet fall, because I don’t depend on my own strengthen. I depend on the GRACE of God to come back to Him; I depend on the GRACE of God to overcome my weaknesses.

GRACE – a “needed” mixture for your concrete Christian living”

2 Cor 12:9

Quoted from Hind’s Feet on High Places – “He promised that his grace, that wonderful, transforming grace into which I had just been lifted, would prove sufficient at all times.”
