I Don’t Know Where I’d Be….

Grace by biblical understanding is when God’s dispenses favor in our lives in lieu of wrath and judgement. In describing the power of grace Christian Gospel Artist Larnelle Harris penned these powerful words, “Were it not for grace I can tell you where I’d be. Wandering down some pointless road to nowhere, with my salvation up to me. I know how that would go and the battles I would face. Forever running but losing the race, were it not for grace.” What a beautiful and thought provoking song! Grace is the one thing the world cannot duplicate, and the one thing it craves above all else for only grace can bring hope and transformation to a jaded world. You might be saying, “What’s so amazing about grace?” Well, for starters the word amazing means… Excellent, Incredible, Tremendous, Wonderful. Let me put it this way, if you’ve experienced a time when you know you deserved to take the “L” but God chose to give you victory, then you my friend are a recipient of God’s amazing grace. Paul defined God’s grace in Ephesians 1:7, “He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of His Son and forgave our sins.” We should all remember that day when God poured out His favor on us. He reminded us on that day, He loved us and that we are extremely special to Him. He expressed to us through His actions His goodness, kindness, and love. We did not earn nor deserve that gift. But He freely gave because of His love for us in Christ Jesus (John 3:16, Rom 8:38).
