Grace Under Fire!

Good Morning Christian Peeps! Earnest Hemingway coined the phrase "Grace under pressure". He related this to having guts, but it is considered today to mean maintaining your attitude while going through something intense. Sometimes we go through much more than just pressure, we feel as if we are going through fire! So a lot of times the phrase used is grace under fire. One example of grace under fire for me was Job in the Bible. No matter what Satan was allowed to do to him he maintained his cool and his position of faith in God. God gives us the grace to stand through trials. He covers us with his grace. The covering of grace to me would be like a cool wet blanket thrown over you in a fire. You can still feel the heat but you are untouched by it. When we are going through trials it feels good to know that God's grace covers us. When we have that covering we can just keep walking in the right direction, holding tight to God's hand. With God's grace we are assured a right outcome if we hold on. Hold on through the fire! Keep God's grace wrapped tightly around us! Be Blessed!
