Grace of God

READ: "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God," 

--Ephesians 2:8

THINK: When we admit to God that we are sinners and believe in Jesus for forgiveness, we experience His grace. God gives us forgiveness, love and eternal rewards not because we are good, but because HE IS. This is grace. When we understand this grace, we have peace. Peace to know that God is with us. Peace even in the storms of life because we know that God is on our side. While the world uses the various forms of media to achieve temporary peace, God offers eternal peace.  Reflect on His goodness and praise Him for the perfect grace of a loving God.
