Grace - What is Your Word?
What is Your Word?
Grace
Everything you need is found in the grace and favor of Jesus! It is only by His grace we are saved.
For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God; not as a result of [your] works [nor your attempts to keep the Law], so that no one will [be able to] boast or take credit in any way [for his salvation].
Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
We also read from John 1:16-17 NASB
Where do you need to stop striving and struggling today, and allow God’s grace to set you free? As His grace washes over you today, may it take you from weakness to strength.
