Grace, Grace, Grace!

In Romans 6, Paul asks, "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?" The next verse he quickly answers with a, "God Forbid." (KJV) or "May it never be!" (NASB)

Even Christians that desperately desire to please God,  at times find that their thoughts or behaviors fall short of God's standards. In these times, we praise God for His grace and His forgiveness. His forgiveness runs deep!!

Grace is not an excuse to sin, rather, it is a comfort when we sin. 

Child of the King, if you have strayed, it is never to late to run back into the arms of God who loves you. While you have breath, you can return. Jesus is the master at making old things new and defiled things pure.(Malachi 3:3, 2 Corinthians 5:17) He is also the master of creating something where nothing existed. (Romans 4:17, John 2:1-11, Genesis 1:1-31)

Don't fret because your arms are empty and your heart is drained. Just come home. 

And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that hears say, Come. And let him that is thirsty come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. - Revelation 22:17
