Grace Dispensed

Grace is a topic of conversation among Christians world wide. We love the Amazing Grace that we have been given. We give credence to wonderful books on Grace by Charles Swindoll (Grace Awakening) and Philip Yancy (What’s so Amazing about Grace). We love the free gift of Grace we have been given by no means or work of our own.


Why is it that those of us who love Grace often fail to dispense the grace we have been given undeservedly to those around us. What is our reaction when someone swerves in front of us on the freeway? Maybe it's toward the those who smoke, overeat, imbibe too much alcohol or swear. We could go on and on could we not?


What if others knew our hearts as God does? Ouch! The truth hurts doesn't it?


What if we remembered that people do things out of emotion, frustration and pain. Christians and Non-Christians alike. How all of us need Grace. How the world needs grace! Grace a simple but powerful message.


We have the message of true grace. Lets share it! Lets embrace it. Lets remember it at ALL times. Lets share it around. Oh the benefits to us and others! Lets live the message.

Sure we all fail far too often but then we “experience” that Grace in the forgiveness we receive. Lets extend Grace to others.
