God’s Royal Colours
Show Every Day
…
To Address Our Very Not-Royal Realities.
Psalm 34:6
This poor soul cried, and was heard by the Lord, and was saved from every trouble.
Romans 12:12
Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer.
Words of Grace For Today
There are lots of complaints floating about, people tired of Covid19 restrictions, and generally people stressed out about life’s little challenges.
Those of us who know who we are (God’s people saved even though we are miserable sinners) know that our cries are heard by God and that God saves us – and there is in all things great cause to trust God’s promises, to remain firm in hope (and resilience), to not be overwhelmed by suffering, and to persevere in prayer.
It is a life of gratitude no matter what comes our way.
It’s so much better than a life of bitching, complaining and draining goodwill from the people around us.
So why do we continually chose to complain about other people and their stupidities?
God helps us remember that we too can be the ones doing stupid things, and are each new day.
Which keeps God active saving us from ourselves,
For which we can, instead of complaining, be ultimately grateful.
What a life, filled with opportunities to be saved and to be grateful!
