5/5

In the book of Zechariah, the high priest was completely overwhelmed with the task of rebuilding the temple. An angel tells him it can’t be accomplished by wealth or power, but by the Holy Spirit. He says to speak “Grace, Grace” over all they’re doing as a reminder of that, and as encouragement to live each day in the strength, wisdom, and love of God.

The number five is believed by many to represent grace in the Bible. Today is 5 May, or 5/5. Let’s call it “Grace, Grace Day.”

This is the day you stop stressing about what everyone is and isn’t doing, and speak grace to every person in your life. It’s the day you stop over–analyzing your circumstances, and listen to how God wants to deal with them in His grace. It’s the day you let go of the fear of failure, and embrace the grace to succeed.

  1. What a good word this is today. Grace, Grace Day! I say let’s extend it to every day from here on out. I love the thought of that. Today’s message is like cool drink of water in a thirsty land. I’m drinking it in! God is moving in the earth.
