For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves,
it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
If you are a giver you know what it is like to give gifts away. You give it with no strings attached, without expecting any type of compensation. This brings Joy to the person receiving. When the person receives the gift you give them you can see their face lights up. It also brings Joy to you the giver.
Same goes for our Father in Heaven. He is a giver. The ultimate gift of Love, His gift of Grace is freely given.
For God did not designate or determine us to suffer wrath, but to receive the gift of salvation by His grace. His Holy Son, The Lord Jesus Christ died for us so that we may live together with him.
Our God is rich in mercy. He freely gives us the gift of grace. So that we can receive the most important gift. Salvation. The greatest gift we've ever received has nothing to do with our works. It is a gift from God. We don't deserve it, we can't earn it, nor purchase it. You only have to receive it form God.
~~~Prayer~~~
Father we give you thanks for your grace. We know it doesn't have to be any special occasion to receive the gift of salvation. Help us to show others how wonderful your grace is. We understand Lord you are a giving God, the giver of Grace. We boast in you Lord for all your goodness. We accept your gift of salvation and we give you all the Glory. In Jesus Christ Name Amen.
