But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. — 1 Corinthians 15:10
There are many times in life when I find myself struggling to face circumstances and situations. As I have shared before, I have found myself struggling with personal medical issues that have prevented me from being able to produce devotionals as much as I used to. There was a point that I felt that I would possibly not be able to continue to share through Another Well Ministries.
After several months of not sharing devotionals, I found myself with so many more ideas and stories to share. I struggled to find the energy amid other things in life. But after much prayer and reflection, I began to share devotionals once again.
That is not to say that things are extremely improved. But I’m reminded of the words of Paul here. It is by God’s grace that I am what I am. I am far from perfect. There are things that may challenge me day to day. But God has blessed me with the ability to share and He provides grace to help me through.
Maybe you find yourself in a similar situation. Maybe it isn’t health related, but perhaps it is something else. Maybe it’s financial. It could be with relationships, work, or many other things in life. God has grace to help you through!
Keep trusting in His grace. It may not be easy and the challenges may make some days more difficult than others, but there’s one thing that I have learned for sure. After each challenging day I can look back and be reminded of God’s goodness and grace. In all things of my life, it is by and through His grace that I am!
