I am constantly reminded by even the messages that I preach because those are which its essence never ends. What I really mean is that I preach them because I am constantly brought to amazement of its message from time to time. It is more than just the idea of being reminded by it, but there is a sense that it renews itself in bigger, deeper and more significantly every time I revisit it.
There is a indescribable renewal of God's vastness in all that He is that I seriously believe we have yet to fully understand and comprehend all that He is. We will never fully understand Him, not even if we were to be with Him in heaven.
Somehow my insignificance and incompetence brings comfort. Not that I take it lightly of my incapability, but even in my hardest efforts, my lacking really reminds me of who I am and the humility that always comes with it puts me to a place of healthy fear for His godliness and holiness.
Grace finds me everyday, it pursues me at every moment even at moments when I would fail to to realize. Throughout the Old Testament, God's grace is found all throughout its pages as He has made a covenant with His people, to the very point when they rebel and turn away from Him.
Ruth is a portrayal of the faithfulness of God when His chosen people have failed in dispersion through the times of the Judges. Where through Ruth that His grace restored what needs to take place of the greater purpose of the continuation of the legacy to David.
Grace traced through my life like a persistent friend that in my effort to show the grace of God, I was in turn shown grace.
