“Grace teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age,”
Titus 2:12 NIV
I am always so pleasantly surprised by the power of scripture to speak fresh insight to me. How many times have I read or heard the above scripture and yet, the Holy Spirit revealed another layer of wisdom again.
Grace “teaches”…yes, teaches us to say no and how to live. While we are learning, we will mess up. That is the beauty of grace! It knows that and is ready and willing to forgive! Grace, the gift of Jesus, gives us all we need to live a holy life…even through all our failures!
If we receive this grace, how much more should we pour this grace out to others! Grace marks us. It sets us apart from the screaming crowds or silent backbiters. It says,” I see you… what you did, but I’m still here.”
Grace is a gift from Jesus that we can give to others.
They may not deserve it. But we don’t either. Jesus gives grace anyway. Let’s be like Jesus today.
