God's Indescribable Grace

God can do all things.

             Mark 10:27

     Scriptures abound that show God’s grace at work through the ages. The New Testament contains picture after picture of the grace of God at work. The Old Testament’s portrait of God’s grace is mesmerizing. God’s grace so abundantly chases after us that we cannot outrun it, outlast it or outlive it. It is forever.

     Thinking about all of that, I began making a list of words that describe the grace of my God. I am sure the list is incomplete and that you can add your own words to mine. Perfect!

            God’s Grace is:

            Redeeming

            Saving

            Cleansing

            Serving

            Abounding

            Rescuing

            Overflowing

            Securing

            Purging

            Healing

            Comforting

            Strengthening

            Praying

            Trusting

            Changing

            Supplying

            Sustaining

            Confessing

            Plentiful

            Limitless

            Stubborn

            Tireless

            Precious

            Persistent

            Fearless

     God’s grace gives courage to the fearful. Peace in the midst of turmoil. Joy in the midst of sorrow. Calm in the midst of anger. Hope in the midst of hopelessness. Freedom to those who are bound by sin. It is abundantly overflowing and never ending.

     No amount of paper and ink can adequately describe God’s grace. Money cannot buy it and thieves cannot steal it. It is a gift and it is yours and mine for the asking.

     Whatever our schedule holds for today, let us remember to make the time to STOP and thank God for His grace. It is life giving, life altering and life abundant.
