Grace or Miracle?

An airplane is falling down. Pilot is asking all the passengers to take the parachute under the seats.
A passenger start ask :"Pilot... Pilot... Do you have oxygen mask? I feel like I will suffocate when I jump out from the plane
Pilot answer :"No, I don't have. The parachute is sufficient enough for you to survive."
Then another passenger ask :"Pilot...Pilot... Do you have boots? I feel like I want to protect my leg so that no injury occur when I am landing to the ground."
Pilot answer :"No, I don't have. The parachute is sufficient enough for you to survive."
Next passenger ask pilot question again :"Pilot... Pilot... Do you have green color parachute? I will feel more peaceful because green color give me peace."
Pilot answer :"No, I don't have. The parachute is sufficient enough for you to survive."


Sometimes, when we want something, we always ask from God. 
"Please let miracle happen on me"
We pray so hard to ask God to give miracle.
However, when miracle not happen or you get not what you want,
you start complain God is unfair. 
"Why people can get what they want, but you didn't give me what I want?"
I did work very hard for it. Why? Why?  and Why?


Sometimes, grace is sufficient for you. May be God have another plan that even better than miracle. 
We just need to believe in Him


Sufficient grace is not for you to endure the pain that you need to handle for trying to accept what you lost. I might lost something right now, but I smile because I know that good thing is coming. 
A lady had a son who was suffering from disease long time ago and pass away at the end. The lady not understand why God want to take him away. Since her son is suffering  from disease, he had no any single friend because everyday he was laying on the bed. But many people go to the funeral service and commemorate him. At the end, she smile because she know the answer. Her son is rest in peace and free from suffering. She was crying for so long since her son sick. She know is time for her to smile. 


Sufficient grace for you is not a reason for you to have a bad attitude 
Like baby, when he/she does not get enough what he/she want, he/she will keep crying non-stop until he/she get it.
For example, I offer a job that which is not what I want. Then I will accept the offer but not willing to do the job. So, I have no heart in doing anything or even screw thing up. 


Try to appreciate what you own or what you have. 
Human still will be what human be
We may feel greedy or not satisfy and wish to ask for more and more when we gain something
We may be feel like want to give up when thing not go smooth on our way
We may try to be angry and do something stupid.


But  do still keep the faith, believe that God have plan on you and miracle will happen anytime. May be not now but in future.






Corinthians 12:9
