New Insight on the Lady Mentioned on 7/11/11 & on Grace

It turns out that the driven older lady I mentioned about two weeks ago has good reason not to be around her husband all the time. His negativity pulls her down. Now that's a problem.

But why don't people understand that God's grace is not limited to salvation? It encompasses all of life. Like our daily stresses.

I'm not necessarily suggesting the lady stay at home. But I'm wondering why she's driven to this fast-paced way of living to get away from him. And I'm wondering why her husband, who embraces God's grace for his salvation, does not also embrace it for his day-to-day problems. I'm also wondering why the family doesn't point him to Jesus and challenge him to take a Biblical approach to suffering, and instead depends on elaborate and stressful man made solutions to the stress of caring for him.

Praise God, He has taught me, through trials, to depend on His grace for everything. Are churches not teaching this? Apparently not. Why not? We need to tell the whole story. Jesus' yoke is easy, and His burden is light. His grace is sufficient for absolutely everything.
