Growing in grace (2 Peter 3:18)

Grace & Peace,

What is grace?  Each new day we see is brought by grace. Preparations are made without a thought of not seeing the next day. "I'll do this or that tomorrow."  There is a belief (faith) that when our bodies lay down to sleep at night, we will meet the next morning. We are given the gift of life and God expects nothing in return. Grace is what is given to man when faith (belief in God) cannot be penetrated. When God becomes the center of our lives and we know the love, joy, and peace of this personal relationship, we then receive grace.  Grace is a gift. At BibleWay Temple, we are taught that grace is the unmerited favor to undeserving man.  This grace is freely given! There is a marriage of faith and grace, we are shown this in the Word that declares, 'For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (Ephesians 2:8).

Grace be with you.

In Jesus name, Amen
