God's Grace Is Rich! 5/16-20/20

16-20 May 2020 - God’s Grace is Rich! – Manna revised 'How Rich God's Grace' from Fresh Manna Blog 2/8/13 by Dorothy & Tony Callies.

Ephesians 1:7 "In Christ we are set free by the blood of His death, and so we have forgiveness of sins. How rich is God's grace..." (NCV). 

How much is God's grace? ".. He has given to us so fully and freely" (Eph.1:8a). What is that? "That is, in Christ, He chose us ... to be His people and we bring praise to God because of His wonderful grace. God gave that grace to us freely, in Christ, the One God loves" (Eph. 1:4,6). 


God gave His grace to us, why? "Because of His love, and it was what He wanted ... to make us His own children through Jesus Christ. And that pleased God so much" (Eph. 1:5).

You know, I have come to appreciate God's grace more and more. I pray that Holy Spirit will open our hearts toward God, the wondrous of His grace. The song came to me:  

Song: Grace Greater Than Our Sin.
"Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
Grace that exceeds (beyond) our sin and our guilt,
Yonder on Calvary's mount out-poured,
There where the blood of the Lamb was split (spilled).
Chorus:
Grace... Grace... God's... grace..,
Grace that will pardon and cleanse.. within..;
Grace... Grace... God's... grace..,
Grace that is greater than all.. our sins..."
(Words from Julia Harriette Johnson, Sing His Praise)

May the Lord gives you grace and peace today!

PS. I happen to find this in Feb. 8, 2013 from Fresh Manna from Heaven Blog and I thought, "wow," I didn't even remember that far back I had done this. His Grace is new every morning.May His grace shine upon your life.
