The Great Gift of Grace

Day 20! Only 10 more days of 30 days of thankfulness. I'm on the home stretch. Woot, woot!


Ok, so today I'm thankful for God's grace.

How He Loves us by David Crowder

     He gives us so much grace each and every day. It is a grace that I'm not getting what I deserve this very moment. His grace is constantly flowing into our lives. The very next breath you breathe is a grace.
     In a way it's kind of like providence except for the fact that providence has to do with someone providing a need. Grace is more the idea of is getting what we don't deserve and our wrongs being overlooked. (At least this is my understanding of grace in a nutshell.)
     God gives me the grace not only to live but also to be one of His own children. That is pretty awesome, and humbling at the same time.
Even Paul thought so :)

Without Him I would not be able to have grace with others. I need grace to have grace for others. It's kind of an odd thought.
That's my thoughts on grace for today.
What are you thankful for? Feel free to share in the comments below!

I'm the crazy older sister of 11 children. If I were a splotch on the page of history I most definitely would be purple.
