He gives more grace

 

But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” - James 4:6

 

But He gives more grace.

Just a few short words, but what a message. He gives more grace. He giveth, and He giveth, and He giveth again.

 

I am grateful that God’s storehouse of grace never runs out.

 

Annie Flint said it so well in her beautiful hymn.

 

He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater,

He sendeth more strength when the labours increase;

To added afflictions He addeth His mercy,

To multiplied trials, His multiplied peace.

 

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,

When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,

When we reach the end of our hoarded resources

Our Father’s full giving is only begun.

 

Fear not that thy need shall exceed His provision,

Our God ever yearns His resources to share;

Lean hard on the arm everlasting, availing;

The Father both thee and thy load will upbear.

 

His love has no limits, His grace has no measure,

His power no boundary known unto men;

For out of His infinite riches in Jesus

He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.

 

I love that last line. He gives and He gives and He gives again. We can’t use up God’s grace. That’s a part of why God’s grace is so amazing. If not for God giving and giving and giving again I would have used up my share a long, long time ago.

 

Thank God that He gives and gives and gives.
