God's grace

Romans 5:1-2 "Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God."

the grace in which we stand ... those are powerful words to me. God's grace is given freely to all who will accept, to all who will believe. You do not earn it; it is a gift. Jesus died on the cross to pay our sin debt because He loves us. Do you know him today? He won't turn you away? My Jesus, sweet Jesus. Accept his free gift today.

Romans 5:3-5 continues on with more encouragement: "And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us."

Excerpts from Charles Stanley Intouch.org devotional reading



Continue to pray for baby Anna Grace as she is having heart surgery at this very moment. She is in Charleston having the Norwood procedure. Pray for her and for the doctors. Pray for her mom and dad as this has to be their most difficult day ever. Pray for complete healing and miracles beyond miracles ... to God be the glory.
