One of the most powerful and meaningful words in the Bible is the word “grace.” Most of us have a hard time understanding the concept of grace. Having ‘grace’ extended to us is sometimes too hard to accept. But God wants you to fully enjoy the grace He has given to you.
“But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by His grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.” (Titus 3:4-7 NAS)
When God says we are justified by His Grace, He is saying to you and me:
· I accept you just the way you are.
· You cannot do anything more to deserve My love.
· I have completely forgiven you of everything wrong you have done in your past.
· You will be forgiven for your future sins.
· You may have My peace every day. (Rom 5:2)
· I bless you because you are Mine.
· I will love you forever.
It is hard to believe someone would love us this way, but God does! When Christ died on the cross, He opened the door to God’s unconditional love and grace.
Some have defined GRACE as: God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense.
God’s grace is real. We just have to live as if we believe it. Don’t minimize, dilute or try to earn what Jesus has already paid the highest price for. He wants you and me to just receive it and say thanks.
What an incredible thing this is called ‘grace.’
