God’s hold on us is revealed by the tone of our hearts. When our hearts are tuned to God’s heart they resonate with his love for others.

In God’s great wisdom and love, he chose our spouse, out of all the persons in the world, to be the one to help us become the person he intends.

When the Lord swept our sins as far away as the east is from the west, and promised an eternity in his presence, the whisk of his broom became our assurance of abiding care for every day in every trial.

God made a pagan king a member of heaven’s family by grace alone. We, too, become members of God’s family by faith in his grace alone.

It is important for us to remember that speaking for God should humble us before we seek to humble others.

God is good all the time because his Son took all the punishment we deserve.

Now that we are new creations, we realize that God’s grace is not our license to sin but Christ’s release from its guilt and power.

Do not believe that your sin is greater than God’s grace. Jesus died to reconcile his enemies to God.

Grace is not a license to sin; it is strengthening the heart for godly service out of love for a sacrificial Savior.

Jesus’ dying gift closed the distance between us and God, reconciling us so that we would treasure his love and live for him!
