One of the most encouraged things I’ve been experiencing recently is people telling me that they are just now, for the first time, understanding what grace really means. Other people are telling me that they are having deeper revelations of what it means to live under grace (This is the group of people I identify with). Yesterday I felt like I needed to remind a Christian brother that there is grace for him too.
Grace is the most basic and the most profound concept of our lives in Christ. Grace is love, and love is the greatest of all things. But we have been found by a loving God who we have all run and hidden from because we liked the darkness better than the light.
If you would, please take a few minutes today and meditate on these verses:
Ephesians 2:8-10 New International Version
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
I love you, and there is grace for you in Jesus Christ.
