chase grace


Ever have those moments where you are browsing Pinterest before bed and a pin catches your eye that makes all the delicious looking deserts, dyi projects, and makeup tutorials seem incredibly pointless in that moment?

There is a lesson to be learned here, and that is that Jesus is on Pinterest!!! Just kidding, but in all seriousness, it never ceases to amaze and dazzle me in the ways the Lord captures my attention sometimes.

As I was killing time, trying to fall asleep, a very plain post caught my eye that simply said, "chase grace".  I was reminded of 2 Corinthians 12: 9 which says, "My grace is sufficient for you..."

Whatever you are facing-be it good, bad, crazy, or ugly, my encouragement to you tonight is to chase grace. A sweet friend of mine back in Texas, constantly poured into me with the encouragement of bestowing grace upon grace...and then grace upon more grace, because that is what Christ constantly pours out on us. In the midst of my worst day, He is showering me with grace. On my best day, that grace is more than enough for me. When I feel distant, dry, and alone, I am reminded it is His grace that draws me in, quenches my thirst, and sustains my every need.

Chase grace friend, and watch as the power of that grace upon grace begins to do more than you could ask or imagine [Ephesians 3:20].
