God has you covered?


A few you weeks back I started telling people "God has you covered". For some this is comforting and for others those are just the words of a simpleton priest. When I say "God has you covered " I'm talking about His grace and mercy. Imagine God's grace as much needed rain in the desert. Picture the beautiful rain falling down on thousands of whithering plants and all of a sudden you see many of the plants pulling out umbrellas to shelter themselves from the rain. BUT IT'S LIFE GIVING RAIN! Why ever would they not want to receive it. They are dying without it yet they actually protect themselves from it as though it is poison. I put away my umbrella awhile ago. LET IT POUR!
God's grace is constant and eternal. The very nature of God's grace and mercy is to cover all people and give them life. Jesus is that grace and mercy. Jesus (God) wants to cover us with grace and mercy that we would live NOW AND FOREVER! God's grace and mercy like the rain in the desert covers everything but it is possible to seek shelter from it . But the reality is that the rain is still covering everything yet it is not allowed to be absorbed by everything .
In reality God has you covered. Have you built a shelter so as not to receive his grace and mercy? Step out and get drenched. Let it pour!
More later
Go Big "GOD HAS YOU COVERED"
