There is No Formula

Formula's exist in math and science to find answers.
There are formula's which make up atoms and molecules.
These are constants.

You may know someone with a "get rich quick" formula, 
or how to lose weight.
Unfortunately, what works in life for one person 
may not work in another's.
These are ephemeral and untrustworthy.

The same is true with Christians.
What works for one may not work for another.
There is no magic formula which will work for all to 
live victorious, happy, and healthy.

Someone may pray two hours every morning and night.
Go to church three to five times a week and
knows where all the scriptures are.
They appear blessed, highly favored, and grace filled.

Consequently, you try to follow their formula for praying
and after five or ten minutes you run out of things to pray about.

You know the verse but not the book or chapter.

Work prevents you from getting to church more than once a week.

So you try another formula and it doesn't work either
and you wonder why.

God doesn't fit in a formula or a box.
God leads each one of us in a different way
and He gives the grace to follow it.

Don't look for a formula.
There isn't one.
Listen to God, He is showing the way.

2 Corinthians 12:9
And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, 
My strength is made perfect in weakness".......
