Every single good thing about who we are, what we do or what we have is the result of God’s grace. It is all undeserved and unmerited. Yes… We may live wisely. We may be highly motivated. We may work hard. But none of this originates with us because God freely supplied the ability, opportunity, voracity and community to make all these things possible. He’s been working on our behalf our entire lives! This is good news because we do not have the fear, frustration, or futility that comes from depending on ourselves when we depend on Him. Rest in this today: Grace has gotten us this far; grace will get us all the way home.
