Alphabet for the Soul-G is for Grace

Alphabet for the Soul–G is for Grace

Happy Monday, friends!

Today’s letter is G and it stands for one of my favorite words–GRACE. Awe just washes over me at the sound of that word.

“But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.”

~Romans 11:6

There are many different definitions for Grace, but they way I describe it is:

Grace is the abundant overflow of God’s goodness.

Without grace we’d still be under the law. A law none of us could keep.

“For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard.“

~Romans 3:23 NLT

But God in His graciousness and in an amazing outpouring of His love allowed His one and only Son die on the cross for our sins, so that we are no longer under the law, but are free to live in God’s amazing grace.

Amazing Grace. I love the hymn, but I also love Chris Tomlin’s version, Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone). I thought I’d share it with you so it can brighten your day. Soak in the words of grace.
