Grace is something to be shared in more ways than one. Grace to me is simply an undeserved or unearned gift. You can't work for it, pay for it, or be good enough for God. God loves us so much that He made a way for us to reconnect regardless of our sin and life circumstances. Accepting this is difficult for many. Beyond acceptance of God's grace on you and your life, it may also be difficult to share and show grace to others. The best news I ever heard was of God's grace for me. Why is sharing the gospel so hard when it is such great news? The other part is showing grace to others. God has given us so much as well as opportunities to bless others regardless of there circumstances. Do we only bless people we want or feel deserve help? Food for thought anyway.
Check out the following scripture:
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." -Romans 3:23-24
"Freely you have received, freely give" -Matthew 10:8
You can never go wrong sharing grace. This came to my mind as some of the youth and I were helping a local person clean up there house/yard. They didn't think we should help the person because they weren't helping themself and it would be bad again later. We did it anyway and what a blessing. I am reminded God gave me what I didn't deserve as well.
Look for a way to share grace and do it!
good word my friend
