Grace

• Is from God

• It means all the good gifts we enjoy so freely in life

• Are the gifts that we perceive in the skills and intelligence of ALL God’s creations

• Is the wondrous gift of being human

• As humans, we are given a unique and special place in the created order

• Is God’s gift of redemption focusing clearly on the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ

• Is the assistance given to us when we choose to become the people that God wants us to be

• It is the knowledge of complete and total acceptance by God without condition, deserving it, and without question.

• Knowing that we are cherished, loved, and guarded from ultimate evil

• It is knowing that we are valued, honored, and respected

• We do not have to earn or deserve such care; it is simply there for us as a gift

• It is given to us at God’s initiative

• It is an expression of God’s love for us, God’s desire, and unconditional acceptance.

• It is an expression of the very nature of God’s being

• Is God’s protection of His children

• Grace is the difference between Man and God. God can "forgive and forget." Man, on the other hand, can forgive but not forget. Another difference is that God always forgives, while not all of us can.

• What is the difference between Man and God? God can "forgive and forget." Man, on the other hand, can forgive but not forget.

• IS ALL AROUND US
