John 1:15-16
15 John bore witness of Him and cried out, sayin, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me [f]is preferred before me, for He was before me.’ ”
16 [g]And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.
Quickword: Thank God for Grace
Over the last nine years, my wife and I have hosted Thanksgiving dinner primarily for young adults in our lives who were unable to make it home each year. Prior to blessing the meal and eating, my wife insists that we gather and for each person to share what they are thankful for. This year I can't wait until Thursday; I'm thankful for the Grace of God. Grace is defined as God's unmerited favor; simply stated, God blessed or favors us more than we could ever deserve. In this Quickword, I just want to thank God for His Grace. In this text, John the Baptist bore witness of Him, saying this is the one who comes after me is preferred before me. Y'all I thank God for His Grace:
It is by the Grace of God that any of us are here...
It is by the Grace of God that life is as well as it is...
It is by the Grace of God through Jesus Christ that we have been redeemed...
I could not wait until Thursday, I just needed to thank God for His Grace today. I typed this post by God's Grace; I'm in my right mind because of God's Grace; I've got a job because of God's Grace, I'm in ministry by God's Grace. There is food on my table and a roof over my head because of God's Grace. I'm looking for one witness who will join me an thank God for His Grace. Your reasons maybe different from mine but if you are thankful for God's Grace, share this post, send me a note back and let's encourage one another through the Grace of God. I know some of you are going through it right know, even this week. The loss of your mother, your brother, your spouse and even your child and grandchild has impacted you greatly. I just want you to know that the Grace of God in due season will see you through. I thank God for His Grace and if He doesn't do anything else, God has done enough, we have received grace for grace. Thank God for His Grace!!!!
