grace-part-11-God's Outstretched Hands

ISAIAH 65:2
I have spread out My hands all the day to a rebellious people, which walk in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts. . .

We are beginning May just like we ended April - in the subject of Grace! I begin with a question - How far does God's hands reach? The answer is found in HIS word - in several places the writers of God's word - have mentioned that God's hands have been stretched out to His people - even to those who deny Him -those who want nothing to do with Him and those that go their own way - Many in this day and age want to be totally self-sufficient - look at it this way - now you can order your meals online - pay your bills online - you can watch Tv via Tebo and the truth is many don't even have to leave their homes - there is a lot less interaction these days as people retreat to their own little worlds - all the while ignoring God with all their possessions and noise - God still has HIS arms reached out to us - we have gone astray - the WORD says - each of us to our own needs -we look out for #1 and anyone else must get in line - we will do first for ourselves then we worry about others -this is a tough pill to swallow - many doubt their need for God - after all they feel and think they have all they need -But amazingly enough God still stretched out HIS hand to the Israelites and He does still even today -HE is longing for many more to come to know HIM before HE parts that Eastern Sky - He is waiting for jus the right time - His grace is found in those outstretched hands - He wants to hold you -won't you allow HIM to take your life and use it for HIS glory - that's what grace is all about - we all need God - we need Him more every moment -for each day is one day closer to HIS return -lets be ready for His arrival! Lets remember HIS outstretched hands of love and of Grace!

A SIDE NOTE:
God is powerful enough to reach through Time - He knows what we are going to do before we even think of doing it - but HE has allowed us to make our own choise for or against HIM -still HIS arms have reached down to save us - let's reach up so HE can take us and save us!
Through CHRIST God's hands are stretched toward us!
