Grace [Godspot]

Chuck Swindoll shares in his book the “The Grace Awakening” about how grace is risky. He said lets imagine that you have a six year old son whom you love dearly. Tragically one day you find out that your son has been horribly murdered. After a length search, the investigators of the crime find the killer. You have a choice. If you used every means in your power to kill the murderer for his crime, that would be vengeance. If, however, you’re content to sit back and let the legal authorities take over and perform a fair trial and he pleads guilty and the sentence is capital punishment, then that is justice. But if you should plead for the pardon of the murderer, forgive him completely, invite him into your home and adopt him as your own son, that is Grace. The Bible says in Ephesians 2:8, “God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God.” Maybe today is the day for you to receive the free gift of the grace of God.
