The Word “Grace” is so commonly used, yet very powerful. It is not a “cliche”
Many use the word “Grace” with a negative motive of not desiring to accomplish the set goals and with the mind that once anyone hears the word, they will be convinced that they truly mean what they say. However often times we discover that it is used in deception or without being truly persuaded. It has became an escape route or false excuse that is assumed to validate the intent of the heart. Some also feel it’s the best way to prove their sincerity. With these myths in mind, it is safer to trust God only and make room for any disappointments or unexpected drawbacks which is very common and may seem usual to men.
The Word of God admonishes us not to trust man wholeheartedly because man is mortal and may sometimes be helpless even when there is a strong desire or will to be a doer of God’s Word. The greatest helper is God “The Holy Spirit” who equips and empowers us by Grace.
Grace is a very essential need or necessity which is likened to Gas or fuel, that a vehicle needs to embark on or continue a journey. We, as God’s creation must constantly look unto God to supply this essential gas or fuel called “Grace” in order to have a safe and fulfilled journey in life. It covers every area of life and is a necessity just as gas is a necessity for any journey.
