Grace

 

 

Grace

 

Ephesians 2:8-9

"God saved you by his grace when you believed.  And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God.  Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it."

 

 

Growing up LDS I feel that Grace was never talked about nor understood.  My "turning point" into Christianity was when I understood what Grace is.

 

 

Justice: Getting what you deserve whether it is good or bad

Mercy: Not getting what you deserve

Grace: Getting better then what you deserve

 

Grace is a GIFT! It is something that we don't earn it is just given to us. It is definitely not something deserved, it's much better.  I am so grateful for this wonderful gift that I want to do good things to tell God thank you.  I recently heard a song that I think describes this perfectly.

 

All I can Do (Thank You) by Mikeschair

All I can do is thank you

For this life I never deserved

Wanna thank you for the grace

I know I don't have to earn

You love me, you love me

Your mercy is proof

All I can do is say thank you

All I can do is say thank you
