GOD'S PROMISES - GRACE

Pray and ask God to give you the grace to handle everything that comes you way. 

Sometimes it may seem that things are going wrong in your life and you can't understand why. Your alarm did not go off and you overslept and you were late for work. You got home and wanted to relax by soaking your feet in the foot bath but it would not come on. 

Instead of getting mad and frustrated, thank God because if you could see the bigger picture you would have known that had you left on time for work, you would have been in the path of a drunk driver. The foot bath had a short in the cord and if it would have come on it would have shorted out the power in your apartment.

God is looking out for you even when it doesn't seem like it.

GOD'S PROMISES - JUDGING OTHERS

It is easy to judge the people around you. Your friends, family, coworkers, even strangers you encounter in your daily life.

They make unwise decisions, they keep making the same mistakes over and over again. They do things that in your opinion is just downright stupid.

Do not look down on or judge others for their actions, pray and ask God to help them overcome the difficulties they are going through. No one is perfect and it is easier to make the mistakes than it is to fix them.

Remember while you are looking and judging others, someone else may be looking and judging you. Think of how that would make you feel and allow those thoughts to help you have compassion for others.
