BOB
Good morning! This is Bob Peden of Central a United Methodist Community here in Meridian. Life can be hard and challenging. Living can wear away our hope. Religion can imprison us in a world of guilt and shame over our past sins, mistakes, and failures.
Where do we turn to find hope, joy, and peace in a world that seems hellbent on destruction? The answer lies in one simple word, Grace. Grace is often defined as "unmerited favor." God chooses to love us not because we deserve his love or because we've earned his love, but because God is gracious and merciful. We can't take credit for grace because it is God's gift to us. By grace, we are recreated as a person who can then share God's grace by doing good things to those around us.
So, what do you think about this grace? Where have you seen God's grace in your life? And, who can you show grace to in your life today, tomorrow, and going forward as you live a life of thanks for the grace you have received from God?
