Sometimes I carry an illustration to the pulpit and forget to read it :-)

Many of us are familiar with 2 Corinthians 12:9 where Paul records the Lord saying, “My Grace is sufficient for you.”  Have you ever wondered why God used such an underwhelming word? I have wondered, but I think perhaps the British learned it from Him!

A man saved to buy a Rolls Royce. The day came when he went excitedly to the dealership. “What’s the horsepower on this engine?” he asked. The dealer searched the brochures, but couldn’t find the answer, emailed the factory in England with the question. “Adequate” was the immediate reply. The car was powerful enough for whatever mountain the driver might confront, whatever desert had to be crossed, whatever load pulled, whatever storm driven through.                                                                                                                                                   God’s grace is a Rolls Royce.  It is adequate for every situation you will face—then some.  ~Anon
