Happy Mother's day to all you Mothers.  Our children were given to us by God, a blessing, enjoy them.  We have heard the song sung all of our lives.  But what is amazing about the grace of God; is what it is all about.  Jesus paid the price that we might experience that grace.  Everyone, just about, knows that the grace given to us is unmerited favor.  This is true, but it goes so much farther than that.  Grace is also the strength, wisdom and ability to do what God has called us to do.  So much of the time we try to handle situations in our lives, we don't think about the grace, through faith, for which Jesus paid the price.  Let me give you an example.  I tried so hard to quit smoking.  Smoking will not send you to hell, but your testimony is hindered, Your journey is hindered because of bad health, and you get to heaven sooner and suffer more.  When I made my life right, I confessed to God, "I can't, but you can. " I had tried to do it  myself and couldn't, When I prayed that in faith, Jesus made it a reality that very night.  Ephesians 4:7 But in each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift.  12 For the equipping of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.  1 Corinthians 12:28-31 READ.  Earnestly desire the best gift, the Baptism of the Holy Ghost.  Jesus works through the Holy Ghost.
