The God of all Grace



 

My paint was a little too fluid when I painted this rock,
 so I had a difficult time with the lettering on this name for God,
...but the message is the same!!!


2012 may have been a tough year for you,
but God has a promise of a better tomorrow.





And the God of all grace
who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, 
 after you have suffered a little while, 
will Himself restore you 
and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 

 
When I'm in the middle of a storm,
sometimes it's hard for me to remember 
that God's grace is there with me.
His grace doesn't want me to stay the way I am.
Very often it is the suffering and the trials
that refine my character.
Then when I look back,
I can see that through it all,
IT WAS HIS GRACE
that got me through,
...and I am changed because of it.

I missed some of your rocks during my blogging break, so had to catch up a little. I, too, can see the situations that only God's grace saw me through.
