God’s grace frees us from having to earn his acceptance by meeting others’ expectations.

Without sacrificing one iota of his glory, God perfectly balances every measure of mercy and consequence.

Our Lord’s great mercy should rouse love to honor him all the more, making his glory our heart’s desire and our life’s song.

When we live intentionally focused on heaven, we are propelled forward in loving Jesus and the world with missional lives.

Treating others with mercy and forgiveness is not merely for their good, but for our own blessing.

While we remain on earth, we get brief glimpses of what heaven will be that come with this assurance from the Holy Spirit.

Covenant love gives people security despite their sin, a foundation to start over again, and a willingness to forgive for the sake of another.

Our submission is never because of another person’s deserving but for all persons’ blessing.

If I believe because I’m chosen, that means the love of Christ has come into my life unconditionally.

The Bible says that the Lord “is the One who lifts my head high.”
