Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo 3269 Get A Grip On Grace
We are only a few days into the new year and already I hear people complaining about what they can't do, where they can't go, and who they can't find.

They seem to be struggling with the roller coaster of life. Yet, they're not looking to make any changes, at least that's what their actions show, and they keep getting on the same amusement ride looking searching for the magic key.
Unfortunately, many who continue to live this life find themselves exhausted, frustrated, depressed, and anxious all because of what they don't have.
However, today, I want to invite you to the table. I want you to sit with me for a moment and not let distractions get in the way.
This is your divine appointment to hear exactly what God wants you to hear. But you have to slow down to speed up.
When you look in the mirror, who do you see? And I want you to be honest, brutely honest!
Do you see a person who is trying to live a life for everyone else with little to give back to herself? Do you see a person who has tired eyes and a heavy heart that pants for rest, but can't find any time? Do you see a person who wants more than where they're at, but has absolutely no idea where to stop in order to start again?
God did not create you in His image to destroy the hope He gave you through His Son, Jesus Christ. God did not create you to run ragged, only to put yourself in a corner that you can't escape. God did not create you to look in the mirror and see yourself. God created you so you could see His reflection!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Get a grip on grace!My friend, God wants you to see Him in you. But the crazy thing is that...
- you're too busy,
- you're too in debt,
- you're too distracted,
- you're too consumed by the world.
- You're too.
God desires for you to know Him and to glorify Him. That is your divine purpose. But unfortunately, we see our lives through the lens of the world; and that's where the missteps happen.
- You judge yourself critically, not giving yourself the grace that God extends to you every day.
- You run yourself ragged, hoping to get noticed when God sees you.
- You fight battles alone, because you haven't invited God into your army.
Get a grip on grace.
I was singing the song "Amazing Grace" in the shower this morning thinking about my dear friend who is walking his last steps of greatness here on earth. Thankfully, the water soothed my tears as they fell from my eyes. Some things just have no words. All you can do is hold them close in your heart, and deeper in your soul.
But one thing my dear friend, Dan Miller, taught me, is to "Be still, and know that I am God." ~ Psalm 46:10. And it wasn't with his words or his teachings, it was simply him living. Living a life that showed him how to get a grip on grace.
Where are you, my friend? As you sit at the table, what are you struggling with?
Give it to God. Don't try to hold it close and think you can do everything by yourself. Go deeper with God and get a grip on grace, the only grace that can give you freedom.
And that doesn't mean you will have all the answers in a snap or by tomorrow morning. It means that when you look at yourself in the mirror, you see a little more of God and a little less of you.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
