How do we know God's grace is sufficient for our struggles?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible assures us that God's grace is sufficient, especially in our weakness, as illustrated in Jacob's story.
Throughout Scripture, including the foundational example of Jacob, we see that God's grace is not just a concept but a reality experienced through trials and struggles. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, Paul emphasizes that God's strength is made perfect in weakness, echoing the transformative nature of God's grace in Jacob's life. When Jacob wrestles with God and is left weak, he discovers that his reliance must be on God alone. This theme is foundational in Reformed theology, which teaches that God works through our weaknesses to reveal His strength and purpose, reassuring us that our struggles serve to deepen our reliance on Him.
