But he gives us more grace (James 4:6).
Look back through the verses we’ve covered lately. They don’t paint a very pretty picture of mankind. Selfish, violent, hedonistic, adulterous–we are a pretty pathetic bunch of flesh. And how does God respond? Does he smack us with a rock? Does he snap his fingers and turn each of us into a puff of fluff? Does he withdraw his Spirit and disown us?
He gives us more grace.
Seriously?
But I didn’t deserve the first measure of grace. Or the second. Or…
Beloved, I will never understand.
But I accept.
And rejoice
Happy Wednesday
