Grace: "Don't Miss It!"

Hebrews 12:15 - "See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many." God's grace is made available to us for every difficult, painful, and trying situation we face in life. The context of this verse in chapter 12 of Hebrews is in relation to the seasons of discipline that God puts us through because we are loved by Him. Although this is always for our benefit, still, it can have a profound effect on us. The cycle goes something like this: We are hurt, we get angry ,- we internalize the hurt and become bitter; the bitterness then comes out of us in attitudes, words and actions that hurts those around us. The saying says; 'Hurt people - hurt people.' The only solution for this is to receive the grace of God which enables and empowers us to forgive, let go and heal rather than internalize the pain and grow bitter. Grace helps us to become 'better' rather than 'bitter.' Grace comes to you for every critical situation - Don't Miss It! Grace and Peace.
