God's Answer to the Mess of Life


"You stare into the darkness. The ceiling fan whirls above you. Your husband slumbers next to you. In minutes the alarm will sound, and the demands of the day will shoot you like a clown out of a cannon into a three-ring circus of meetings, bosses, and baseball practices.


"For the millionth time you'll make breakfast, schedules and payroll...but for the life of you, you can't make sense of this thing called life. Life with its beginnings and endings. Cradles and cancers and cemeteries and questions. The meaning of life.........the poor choices of life!


"God answers the mess of life with one word....grace! Do we really understand it? God in the Bible says, 'I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you!' (Ezekiel 36:26). That's grace. Grace calls us to change and then gives us power to pull it off!"
