02 Dec The joy of living in Grace.
Before the Apostle Paul’s conversion, if someone had suggested that he would impact the world for Jesus, he probably would have laughed.
🎯But God’s grace can impact anyone. Contrary to what many think, being a Christian doesn’t mean adding good deeds to our life.
🎯Instead, believers receive forgiveness and a new nature by God’s grace.
💥Then our inward transformation results in obvious outward changes.
💥Transformation occurs in many areas. For example, our attitudes change—salvation by God’s grace results in humility and gratitude.
🎯Out of thankfulness for this undeserved free gift flows compassion for the lost and a desire to share the gospel with them.
🎯Experiencing Christ’s forgiveness also results in a longing to serve Him.
💥This doesn’t need to be in a formal church setting; we serve Him by loving others, helping those in need, and telling people about Him.
🎯While there are still natural consequences for our sin, God offers us forgiveness and redemption through Jesus.
🎯He made a way to restore our broken relationship with Him.
💥What’s more, our Father transforms our lives so we will become more like His Son and reflect His heart to others.
