Is your default mode WITH PEOPLE law & judgment or grace & mercy? "Forgive others as the Lord forgave you.”
If God shows grace to people who hurt or hate me, who am I to refuse to do it? "A servant must be like his master" Mat.10:25
Doubt wonders, "Have I done enough to go to heaven?" Grace answers, "No, you haven't. But Jesus has on your behalf."
Lord, give me grace to feel my need of grace, grace to ask for grace, grace to receive grace and, when grace is given, grace to use it. MaxLucado
Its faith first and last; It’s grace always and forever.
Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace. Your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace.
