I was just having a conversation with the elders and small group about this. Very timely. I've been thinking for the past week on why God has seemed to give me such a capacity to get things done, but I often wonder where the line between my own innate ability ends, and God's grace begins.

I also like the clarification around God's grace not just being unmerited favor, but a part of his strength and power. It makes so much more sense hearing "my grace is sufficient for you" in that way.

This is powerful and timely. I have learned to use "God's grace" as a guage of his leading and his taking. There was a season a few years ago Esther and I were serving in our ministry but God's grace was diminishing on us. We felt a lot of peace about withdrawing and onto something else where his grace was present and clear.

Interesting! I don't think I had considered the "diminishing of God's grace" like that before as a way to think about where his calling is leading or not leading. I will pay attention to this and see how it might ring true.
