Dec 03 - WORK OF ABUNDANT GRACE

“God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven” (Gen 1:20).


Waters show grace. The grace of God which is in us is able to bring forth ABUNDANTLY ‘moving creatures’ i.e. redeemed souls who can move the world for the glory of God. ‘That hath life’ – By receiving abundant grace we can bring forth an abundance of souls who can move others also in a chain-reaction.

“And fowl that may fly above the earth” - Souls who live a higher heavenly life are also formed by abundant grace. Such people CAN JUST FLY AWAY WHEN JESUS COMES. ‘Fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven’ - We cannot live or fly above the world unless we have the vision of an open heaven.

Child of God, God’s abundant grace in us can do great things in us and through us. Let us not frustrate the grace that is bestowed on us. Let us keep dying to our self and allow the grace of God to work in our lives, so that finally we may be able to say like St Paul, “His grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain.”
