Christian Living

There are many areas in our life where we lack wisdom, intelligence and even the desire to work hard. Even after our repeated efforts to improve our personality, we are not changed. I hope many of us are in such a situation in our workplaces where others are too smart than us and we feel most of the time lacking something.

There was a weight lifting completion. A number of champion weight lifters strongly built with heavy muscles participated in it. They kept on practicing rigorously with the latest techniques and supervised by the best coaches. On the day of the competition, when everyone expected one of the well known lifters to win hands down, an unknown person who was little known and was frail won the event. No one has ever seen him practicing. Now, this is Grace. This is what David had when he encountered Goliath.

All the well trained soldiers in the Israeli army were afraid of Goliath, but David without much training and effort killed him. Maybe to the world, David would have looked like a fool when he told that he would fight the Philistine. But God chooses the weak to shame the strong.

It is grace that we need to fight the battles of the world. We need to surf in the wave of grace which comes on and on without stopping. I am not saying that we need not work hard; we need to put our best efforts in everything. But ultimately it is grace that counts.

To sum up everything, God said to Paul in 2 Corinthians 12: 9 “"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Let us never forget this whenever we are downcast and disturbed by our weakness. Grace is one of the most powerful weapons that God has given us through Jesus Christ to wipe off our imperfections. Let us never take it lightly!
