Is there Grace for the Bipolar?

 Lets not forget the Grace of God and His Righteousness.  You see Gods Word tells us that the Lord gives us His righteousness towards us even when we don’t deserve it. (Bipolar)   In Revelation it says that the Lord places a robe of righteousness upon us.  Notice; It’s His righteousness not ours, we can’t earn it or ever deserve it.  It’s free!  To those that simply receive it.
 

The Problem is... most of us feel too guilty to receive it.  We feel the symptoms of Bipolar make us feel unworthy  

It's like the Prodigal son.. It says he was lost but now is found..

The Prodigal story of the lost son is a powerful story of Gods Grace towards us....

In the Prodigal; after the son has spent all his money on partying and wild living, (Manic)  it says the father is still anticipating his soon return by looking out the window (so to speak) for his return.

Once he sees him coming he runs down the road and hugs him and kisses him as Our Heavenly Father does for us....  and then does 4 incredible things....


Put yourself in his Bipolar shoes.

"The father said to his servants, 'Bring out the best robe and put it on him" The Robe is authority.

Putting a ring on his hand meant Wealth and Dignity

"Sandals on his feet." Servants don’t usually wear sandals or shoes so for his father to put sandals on meant that his son was being brought back into the family. 

And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' And they began to be merry.

Through The Prodigal Parable we see God Restoring a Lost Son or Daughter. and not just a little bit -  but to full Sonship or as Daughters.

From the many e-mails we get, the thing we hear the most are Bipolar Victims beating themselves up, their tired, depressed, their High there Low their Manic, spunout. 


Yet Grace is the greatest object of the Bible.  People are saved by Grace. And yet for some the hardness of their heart keeps people from the tenderness of Grace.

Eph 2:8,9  By grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
