Strong grace? Grace is a soft word. It is a word that is a balm to the wounded heart. It doesn't "feel" strong. But Paul tells Timothy to be strong in grace. Why? Probably because he was and would continue to face opposition and challenge. It would be tempting to be anything but grace-full. It would take strength to stand firm in the grace of Jesus Christ. The same is true for us today, dontchathink? Are you strong in grace?
You may notice that I have added a portion of Psalms 119 to my reading list. I have decided to read a portion of it very night. This will allow me to meditate on the value of meditating on the scriptures just as David did. In the past, to be honest, I have avoided reading this Psalm. I mean, it is long! But, there is much to chew on in that Psalm so it's time to give it it's due.
Today's Reading: Matt 16; Gen 16; Rom 16; 2 Tim 2; Job 16; Ps 16; Prv 16; Jsh 16; Isa 16; Acts 16 PLUS Psalms 119: 1-32
