Bubbles of God's Grace

"Sit quietly with Me, letting all your fears and worries bubble up to the surface... In the Light of My Presence, the bubbles pop and disappear... My Presence will be with you at all times... Enjoy Peace in My Presence." (328)
I know what it's like to have fears and worries bubble up, much like murky sludge from a broken sewage line. Yuk! But, I also know what it's like to have beautiful bubbles of grace surround and lift me up to new heights, into a whole new perspective.
It reminds of one summer when we had grandchildren out on the back patio making all kinds of bubbles...blowing, spinning, running, jumping with an assortment of various bubble making wands. They would "ooh" and "ahh" with wonder, then suddenly squeal with uncontainable delight.
There is something quite amazing about the nature of a bubble. It reflects a rainbow of colors and seems to defy gravity, floating effortlessly in space.
God's love can act as a indestructible grace bubble that allows us to defy the downward pull of sin and to be lifted up to new heights. Ephesians 2:4-10 speaks of how His great love and grace has saved us and raised us up to be with Him, in heavenly places displaying the immeasurable riches of His grace.
Makes me wonder if we should keep bubble wrap around for those times when we need to pop the bubbles of fear and worry in our lives and then go outside and make a few bubbles of grace!

  1. I love the bubble wrap idea! We have some too. I save it for shipping gifts at Christmas. The scriptures today came at the perfect time for me today, especially Luke 12:22-26! This time of year can get overwhelming with Christmas coming. We are trying so hard to get ahead and it seems things come up all the time. However what joy it is to share his love and I wouldn't miss that for anything. "Ephesians 2:4-10 speaks of how His great love and grace has saved us and raised us up to be with Him, in heavenly places displaying the immeasurable riches of His grace." (DMC) My new favorite song lifts my spirits when fear or anything comes in and trys to steal my joy.

    Great is Your love
    Let the whole earth sing
    Let the whole earth sing
    You reached for us
    From on heaven's throne
    When we had no hope

    You are the way
    There is no other
    You are the way
    There is no other

    CHORUS:

    You rose from death to victory
    You reign in life
    Oh majesty
    Your name be high and lifted up
    Jesus, Jesus alive in us

    You outshine the sun
    You are glorious
    You are glorious
    Lord over all

    We owe it all to You

    PRE-CHORUS 2:

    In everything
    Be exalted
    In everything
    Be exalted

    CHORUS:

    Oh majesty
    Your name be high and lifted up

    BRIDGE:

    The enemy is under Your feet
    We are free
    We are free
    Death has been defeated by love
    You overcome
    You overcome
    The enemy is under Your feet
    We are free
    We are free
    Death has been defeated by love
    You overcome
    You overcome

    You rose from death to victory
    You reign in life
    Oh majesty
    Your name be high and lifted up
