A Relieving Grace 1 Kings 17:8-24In this Old Testament story, God demonstrates His grace in the life of the prophet Elijah. We see God’s grace displayed in His provision not only for His prophet but also for the widow and her son.
We can be tempted to limit our thinking about grace to “church” matters, but it is for every need in life-physical, emotional, and spiritual. The relief that grace brings from the burdens and pressures we face cannot be found anywhere else: we must go to God to receive His grace during times of need. Grace takes our burdens and replaces them with God’s blessings. Grace takes our fears and replaces them with God’s peace. Grace provides the means for us to receive what we need from the Lord. Stop relying on your own strength, and allow God’s grace to be made perfect in your weakness.
