Come with me to the Camp of Grace, located at the foot of the Cross.
Where GRACE is found in it's purest form. Where GRACE is profound, and its effects are both far-reaching and life changing!!!
The next few blogs will answer your questions regarding what does GRACE look like? The examples we will be looking at will be: GOD'S LOVE; THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS; PAUL'S GRACE and MY GRACE.
Our most perfect example of GRACE began, of course, with GOD. He sent His only Son, JESUS, as the sacrifice for our sins. He sent His only Son, Jesus, to suffer and die for our sins. What AMAZING GRACE for a Father to do such a thing!
This is how the Message Bible expresses this everlasting event in John 3:16
This shows how much God loved us: He gave His Son,
His one and only Son: so that no one should be destroyed;
but by believing in Him, we can have a whole and everlasting life.
GOD didn't go to all the horrible trouble of sending His Son
merely to point an accusing finger, telling us how bad we were.
He came to help, to put the world right again!
At the arrival of Jesus, GOD entered history in a personal way and made it unmistakably clear that He was on our side, doing everything possible to save us. GOD'S plan was all presented and worked out in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus!
Now....... I know you have John 3:16 memorized. You may be thinking, "good grief Joan this is too elementary for me". Let me remind you, God's Spirit is calling you to a higher level of GRACE so you can be a greater blessing to your family. To give MORE GRACE you will need to RECEIVE MORE GRACE. More divine revelation which will move more from your brain to your heart. A divine, higher level of knowing how much you are loved and favored by GOD! Not just at the moment of your new birth but forever! Each and every day here and ever after!!!
What DIVINE LOVE and UNMERITED FAVOR has been and is given to you and I and the whole world! What an PERFECT EXAMPLE OF GRACE! GRACE in it's purest form!!!
Please continue this journey into MORE GRACE with me! MORE GRACE will be profound, and its effects will be both far-reaching and life changing in us and in our families!!!
Amen??? Amen!!!
Enjoy Your Journey!
Blessings,
Joan
