Grace Will Abound

GRACE WILL ABOUND

Scripture Reading:  Hebrews 4:15-16, Titus 2:11-13, 1 Peter1:13, Romans 5:1-2

     For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are - yet was without sin.  Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. 

     For the grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people.  And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures.  We should live in this evil world with self control, right conduct, and devotion to God, while we look forward to that wonderful event when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed.

     Therefore, gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

     Because we have been made right in God's sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.  Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of highest privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God's glory.

SEED WORD:

     I can not count the times that God's grace fell on me when I wasn't even deserving of it.  It was during those times that I dropped the pride in my life and humbled myself  for without him I would have stumbled on my own two feet. There are times when you just can't do anything about a situation and that is when his grace will step in if we let our pride go.
