But maybe there’s more to grace than they told you. Yes it’s God’s “unmerited favor to lost sinners,” but did anyone tell you how grace can change you? How it can revolutionize the way you live?
Grace can give you freedom. Freedom to be creative, spontaneous. Freedom to think outside the box. Grace can make you want to know God, make you want to be close to him.
Grace can cure your fears, improve your outlook, help you look at life through the lens of joy rather than the fog of pessimism.
Grace can strengthen your relationships, giving you freedom to be yourself--freedom to let others be them selves--without feeling a need to judge, control, or manipulate one another.
And yes, Grace is God’s incredible gift to each of us that shows His love daily. Preachers preach it. Teachers teach it. Theologians analyze and then we forget all about it.
HAVE WE FORGOTTEN THE MEANING OF GRACE?
