Brother Brett's first sermon, a good example of God's grace in action. Every event in our lives requires God's grace. Some more obvious then others; some needing more grace to get through then others. In the text Paul was in need of grace, grace to keep him humble. He had gone through a significant event and struggled a little with how to deal with it so God's grace came to keep him in the right frame of mind. Perhaps some of us preachers could do with some of this same kind of grace. Grace that reminds us of our first sermon and how God has grown us over time just as He had Paul. His sufficient grace is, after all, for all our needs. Whether physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, or what not He can work through us. Use our past experience and even our failures for His glory to show off the power of His grace. |
