In Christian beliefs, the definition of grace means:
The free and unmerited favor of God as manifested in the salvation of sinners and the bestowal of blessings. Grace is the kindness of God that we don’t deserve. There is nothing we have done, nor can ever do to earn this favor. It is a free gift.
The Word of God is filled with verses pertaining to grace. Here are just a few for you to think about today.
Ephesians 2:8-9: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith–and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God–not by works, so that no one can boast.”
Ephesians 4:7: “But to each one of us, grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.”
II Peter 1:2: “Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.”
Hebrews 4:16: “Let us approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”
James 4:6: “But he give us more grace. That is why Scripture says, ‘God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.'”
Titus 2:11: “For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.”
May the God of grace be with you and guide you through the remainder of your week.
