Grace - (11)
Christianity's Distinguishing Force

Acts 20:24
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace.

Let's see . . . .   JESUS gave HIS life for us and we give our lives for HIM.  Everybody giving, no time to be selfish or needy.

But, of course, although JESUS gave completely, we are in a partial state of giving, if you will be honest.  None of us are 100%.  That is part of what this life is all about - learning to give our lives to HIM.

How?  Well, without the LORD giving us a supernatural heavenly endowment called Grace, it would never happen.  We are not giving by nature.  We are self providers.  And this is good to an extent, because it keeps us alive.

But, as we grow in the LORD, we start to do the strangest things.  We give our money to churches or worthy causes, we work hard doing acts of kindness without any tangible reward, we are loving to the unlovable, kind to the thankless . . .

All by that great gift of Grace.  And the result is that the Kingdom of GOD (the Church) grows and grows!  

Grace Works!

JESUS The Author of Grace!
