Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them.-Orison Swett Marden

 - This is a great saying but if we would read the directions first, we can avoid making some of the mistakes that we make we we try to do things our way instead of God's way.

GRACE, MERCY and PEACE (2 Timothy 1: 1-10)

Grace is what our holy God gives that we, as sinful people, don't deserve.  Even in our darkest hour, strength is given by God so that we can endure.

Mercy is what God withholds that we do deserve.  Even when we're wayward, God gives time and help for us to turn back to Him.

Peace is what God brings to His people.  Jesus said:  "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you"

He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater, He sendeth more strength when the labors increase; To added affliction He addeth His mercy.  To multiplied trials, His multipled peace.

God's grace is immeasurable,

His mercy is inexhaustible,

His peace is inexpressible.

So glad I found this group.  I truly believe that without God we have nothing.  We all need that little "pick me up" and Bible versus and famous quotes are something I hold near and dear.  With God's grace and mercy, we shall all overcome.
