grace

Chris and I had the absolute pleasure of spending a week with my brother a few weeks ago. He inspires me. He reminded me that trials and tribulations come into our life inevitably but the Lord overcomes all. If we are willing to trust and give up control we will find true freedom. Prayer really is powerful- sometimes it's the only thing we can do. But, the comforting thing is that the Lord already had everything worked out. I've been reading James and it can be heavy stuff sometimes but here's what I read this morning- a reminder that God's grace covers all if we just submit to Him.
"Come near to God and he will come near to you....Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up." -James 4:8a, 10
