Hearts Destined For Grace

A Heart Destined for Grace is a heart following God's will in all things. Jesus tells us in John 16:33, "I have told you these things so that in me, you may have peace. In this world you will have troubles; But take heart; I have overcome the world." Jesus was teaching and equipping His followers, to not become discouraged when situations of this world come against them; but to take heart(do not fear, or let their hearts become troubled) because He had already overcome the world.
He came to prepare the way necessary so we could have His peace in every situation that might arise in our lives. He assures us that in this world we will have troubles, but because He has already conquered ALL things, we are made 'More than conquerors through Him Who dwells within us, (Rom 8:37)!
Jesus assures us in John's writings from chapters 14-16 that He would not leave us comfortless but would send us a comforter who would teach us in all our ways. So if we take a step back from any given situation to discuss it with the Lord, Holy Spirit will step right in and guide us in becoming more than conquerors in whatever we are encountering, with grace and truth.
Learning to take that step back from situations and talk it over with the Lord, is the beginning of a heart destined for grace; a heart seeking to follow the will of God in all our ways. On a human minded scale, it's easy to jump right in and try to work given situations out on our own, and usually we just make a mess of things and are left feeling awful about the turn out; when the outcome could have been much more peaceful, had we taken that step back to communicate with the Lord and waited for Him to guide us in what to do next, resulting in peace for all involved.
As followers of Christ Jesus, we are destined for a heart of grace. A heart filled with His love and a mind set on things above is a heart of grace. Jesus came to bring us a Life filled with Love, with Joy, and with Peace as our minds are set on Him. He came that our hearts would be filled with His Amazing Grace enabling us to show forth His divine Love one to another. He came that we would have Peace in all our ways. He came, He overcame, and He surrendered His will to the Father's Will, thereby laying down His life for you and me, so we could be pardoned from ALL our sins and live a Holy Life unto Him, the Author and Finisher of our Faith.
But He needs you and me to submit to His will, as He submitted to the Father's will for all of us, so He can guide us in ALL our ways. He desires to be our Lord, our Comforter, our Peace, and the Lover of our soul. He desires to shower us with blessings beyond all we could ever imagine! He desires to give us the Best Life imaginable through Him. He desires a personal relationship by spending time in His presence. As our personal relationship grows, our ears and our hearts become more receptive to His voice so we can follow His guidance in all our ways. He desires to give us that heart destined for grace if only we take time to hear His voice!
I pray you will take the time to acquire a heart destined for grace so you can truly enjoy a wonderfully blessed day, because God loves you and so do I~~~
