Fullness of Grace Upon Grace: The Divine Multiplier

The gift of grace is given, but our job it to receive it, to reach out and take hold of this treasure so lovingly given. We can only receive by believing. Faith is the energy that empowers our hearts to take hold of grace. Grace of God given in Christ is a gift to be unwrapped and lived in. How often have we left this precious gift unused on the shelf of our self-sufficiency?

How often have we received the fullness of God with mental belief, but denied the power of the gift in the way we choose to go about our day?

Make it a Beautiful Christmas

Many of us really enjoy making our homes welcoming with a festive atmosphere. Is this just an expression of our inner "Martha Stewart," bursting forth this one time of the year? Beauty strikes a chord in us for it can draw our hearts to God, reminding us that beauty beyond description is part of who He is. God did not have to make things beautiful. He could have simply gone for functional--get the job done. We would have never known the difference.

Two Ways to Exalt Christ This Christmas

During Christmas, we exalt all kinds of things, special people, favorite traditions, gift-giving, decorating, partying… my attention is often centered on creating the Perfect Holiday.There have been times when the doing of Christmas has over-shadowed the reason for the season. On some level, I have often elevated the secular over the sacred. Faced with news that could have been overwelming, Mary chose to trust God with a heart quick to rejoice. When we rejoice and praise God, faith is stirred up as we put our attention on God—His strength, presence, and faithfulness.
