Explaining what blesses us and honors God is a sweet provision of his grace.

When we forgive as we have been forgiven, we radiate Christ’s love and experience it.

So counter-intuitive are so many aspects of the gospel that we require the work of the Holy Spirit to understand God’s grace.

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

We are free to seek change according to just means, but our goal is always to advance God’s kingdom in God’s ways.

Our good works do not make us right with a holy God, but because his grace makes us holy, we can do good works that honor him and bless others.

What secures our place at our Master’s heavenly table is the graciousness of his heart. That’s the message of the gospel of grace.

It’s been said that “History is His Story.” But how does the story of Jesus unfold across all the stages of time?

When our God is so great, no difficulty is beyond his power. When his grace is so sure, no sin is beyond his pardon. God’s grace triumphs!

Because we could never do anything by our personal strength or mental discipline to reach up to God, our gracious heavenly Father lowered his stairway down to us.
