When God’s goodness touches our lives, it’s called “grace.”
James Randall Robison
**********
Grace is the offer of God’s ceaseless presence
and irrational love that cannot be stopped.
John Ortberg
The Lord is merciful and compassionate,
slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
The Lord is good to everyone.
He showers compassion on all his creation.
All of your works will thank you, Lord,
and your faithful followers will praise you.
Psalm 145: 8-10 NLT
“This grace of God is a very great, strong, mighty and active thing.
It does not lie asleep in the soul.
Grace hears, leads, drives, draws, changes, works all in man,
and lets itself be distinctly felt and experienced.
It is hidden, but its works are evident.”
Martin Luther
… and His Glory
What is the glory of God? It is who God is.
It is the essence of His nature;
the weight of His importance;
the radiance of His splendor;
the demonstration of His power;
the atmosphere of His presence.
Rick Warren
They will speak of the glory of your kingdom;
they will give examples of your power.
They will tell about your mighty deeds
and about the majesty and glory of your reign.
For your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom.
You rule throughout all generations.
Psalm 145: 11-13a NLT
