Abundant Grace

~~~ Feast of Saint Lawrence ~~~

~~~ 2 Corinthians 9:6-10 ~~~ Psalm 112 ~~~ John 12:24-26 ~~~  

God is able to make every grace 

abundant for you,

so that in all things, 

always having all you need,

you may have an abundance for every good work.

God makes grace abundant for you.

It is up to each of us to come before God 

to be receptive for his abundant grace.

Grace is a necessary component of every good work.

Grace puts every possibility within our grasp.

Grace is God's way of making us more holy.

Imagine God's grace being the most beautiful 

composition you have ever heard.

Imagine God's grace lifting up not 

just your heart but your soul.

The greater the grace the closer 

we move into the footsteps of Jesus.

...unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies,

it remains just a grain of wheat;

but if it dies, it produces much fruit.

The grace of God sustains the wheat 

even as it falls to the ground and dies.

The grace of God produces

 all that is needed for abundant fruit.

All that is filled with the beauty of grace

will produce much fruit.

All that is good in your life 

is the evidence of God's grace at work on your behalf.

Grace freely given to you.

How well will you make use of this

abundant gift of grace?

Without God's grace 

we would be like a fish out of water.

May the grace of God

produce abundant fruit in your

 heart, soul...

and in your daily life.

~~~ Peace ~~~
