Words From the Well!
by
Peggie C. Bohanon
Grace, patience, love, understanding--all the qualities we need in our human and spiritual relationships--can be found at the Cross--AND at the Well. Come with me--there's no traffic, no check-out waiting lines, no wrong shirt sizes, not even a backpack to be found--it's all grace, pure grace, from the heart of our loving Lord, who knows and loves us all! He's waiting to freely distribute it to those in need. Come along with me, for I need it badly; do you?
Can you hear Him say, "Martha, Martha, I JUST want to re-order your life with my peace...take it today--it's YOURS. The dinner is important--but it can wait. Take time to sit at My feet; to wait on ME, the source of your peace!".......And if you listen closely enough, you may hear the Master say it to you! It may not be a "dinner" that's got you uptight. It may be BACK TO SCHOOL, or family concerns and illness; it may be the job, your multi-tasked responsibilities at church, or messy rooms at home, the kids, the traffic lights, the over-strained budget, the under-paid job....WHATEVER, big or small, is stressing you out today, bring it to the Cross. A few minutes at His feet and you'll know His peace--wonderful, deep peace, and supersized--JUST for you!
Can you hear Him call her name, "Mary"? It was personal--He KNEW her by name. He was responding to her heart with His very own sweet and healing presence!....And if you listen closely, you may hear Him call your name. He knows the emotional pains and hurts you have experienced. Perhaps some were of your own making; perhaps others were dealt you cruelly by a loved one or friend. You're hurting--but He knows. He calls to you today to bring your broken heart to the Cross. He waits to respond with His very own healing presence for YOU--and soothing grace for all your hurts. Kneel today in His presence and KNOW His supersized grace, made JUST for you!
Can you picture the Father, in love reaching down to His fallen servant, forgiving, wiping away the tears, embracing him with totally abundant grace? He "restoreth my soul," David writes in Psalm 23, and restore He did! And He'll do it for you. Your sin may be great or small--we all fail the Lord many, many times--but He is ready and waiting to forgive and to offer His grace--in supersize! You need not carry around the guilt and shame of past sins--for He will restore your soul and the joy of your salvation, just as He did David's. Your sin, confessed and forsaken, is forgiven by the power of His blood. Receive His forgiveness today--it's waiting at the Cross for you--abundant, supersized grace--JUST for you!
It's supersized for the sorrows of life--
It's supersized for our spiritual needs--
Won't you receive His supersized grace today??

"Supersize it!" Most likely, you will hear those words at McDonalds(R)--but have you seen kids' jeans lately? Supersize is in--the bigger and the bloomier, the better! I thought I knew all about super-size, and then this week, I discovered, in the middle of back-to-school "stuff," I needed God's GRACE in supersize! (Ever shop with teenagers, run the roads, hit the shops--not with your car, but your kids--return to an office and try to regain your sanity??) Well, that's the background for this week's devotion, and if you are the parent of a teen, or remember when you WERE, you will grin along with me, and know I WILL survive by God's grace -- supersized, that is!
It's supersized for the stresses of life--
He understands the practical pressures and He reorders our lives with His peace.
He responds to our hearts with tender love and His awesome presence.
He restores our souls by the power of His Blood!
"Now unto him who is able to do EXCEEDINGLY ABUNDANT above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen (Ephesians 3:20,21 KJV)."
"Lord, I need Your grace today--I kneel at Your cross with the stresses, sorrows and sins of my life. Thank You for abundant, supersized grace which flows freely to my heart this day. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Have a great day serving the Lord!
