Day 20

Grace Day

from the The Kingdom of God reading plan


Philippians 3:20-21

BY She Reads Truth

Take this day to catch up on your reading, pray, and rest in the presence of the Lord.

Our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly wait for a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ. He will transform the body of our humble condition into the likeness of his glorious body, by the power that enables him to subject everything to himself.
—Philippians 3:20–21

    So thankful there is more than this world and all the problems we deal with here. Praying that we keep our eyes on His coming kingdom. ❤️

    I typically use Grace Day for lengthier prayer and so will be lifting up those requests which have been posted here. I’m also reminded on Grace Day to extend grace to myself and others. We are all flawed human beings on individual journeys. While we may think someone else should be further along, we are not yet where we should be either. This Jesus-following life has many joys and sorrows, victories and failures, twists and turns, valleys and mountains, disruptions and obstacles. We have a hard enough time walking in our own shoes let alone imagining what someone else is going through. So let’s be gracious and forgiving, for that is what we want from others also. And it is what Jesus would have us do.

    Hey sisters—-have had a heavy heart this week as there has been some progress this week in the family conflict/miscommunication I mentioned previously that has been going on a couple months. Progress in that a bit more communication is happening yet I feel like I have lost my sister. We moved halfway across the country last summer to be close to family and raise our kids together and now the kids haven’t seen each other in months and I feel very discouraged and like I don’t know how to move forward with the parameters they have said. I realize that might not make sense but trying not to hash it all out here. I know that we all have the Spirit living inside and pray that God will work on all our hearts and minds to bring clarity, wisdom, grace in our interactions and to let the love and the peace of Christ rule in our hearts. Thank you for listening and would appreciate your prayers. Love you, sweet sisters. Always read your comments and prayer requests and pray you all have a peaceful Saturday ❤️

    I have appreciated this study and the way focusing on God’s Kingdom gives us perspective in the midst of life’s challenges and emotions. We don’t minimize the hard things, but we declare the truth of Who God is, who we are in Him, then choose to live according to the Kingdom way despite what our eyes see right in front of us & the pain we feel. Lord, help me grow in this. My primary emotions right now are either sadness, numbness, or extreme anxiety. It’s hard to live like that. But I plan to continue reading along with the next study series. ❤

    Friends,
    I could use some prayers. The amount of I have taken on lately has exhausted me. Of course most on their own are not bad. However, unfortunately they add up to a load I cannot handle. Please pray that I can release myself to rest. AND let go of a few ways I have overextended myself. The lies “I can do it all” and “no one else will step up, so I better” have wrapped me up tightly. I woke up this morning, and my mind immediately went to all the household chores I need to catch up on. I’m tired, and it’s not great for my three girls all in elementary who still need me. And of course my principal asked yesterday if I’d like a full time job instead of subbing all the time. Sigh. Thanks for letting me spill.

    Reading all of Philippians chapter 3 this morning and being reminded of Paul’s astounding conversion and transformation from murderous Pharisee to preacher and writer of many books of the New Testament. From persecutor to persecuted. Wow. Continuing to pray for each of you as I read through the comments each day, knowing that He is listening.
