God's grace is so amazing. God's grace is free but not cheap. It came with a cost; that cost was the death of God's Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
I told you yesterday about the young man who seemed to think like me and had the same spiritual experience of "weeping in the Spirit." I have a friend who returned to the same church at the same time as I did, but because of quite different circumstances. nd what is amazing is that God is using the same set messages and reassurances to get us to the places and purposes that He wants for us. God's grace and His love is around us.
God's grace is free. It isn't gotten through any good works that we do. We receive it simply by accepting Jesus Christ as our Savior, and having faith to believe that His blood will cleanse us from our sins. And as we accept His forgiveness, His salvation, His cleansing from sin, He also gives us a purpose for our lives that He has preplanned before we were born. He has "good works" that He has planned for us to do long before the world came into existence.
Like my friend, and like the young man I spoke about yesterday, I'm looking forward to the good plans that God has in store for me. Why don't you try Jesus ' salvation and His plan for you today?
"For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourself, it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. " Ephesians2: 8 - 10. (KJV)
