Overflow (OHC)Sample

Grace, the very word suggests that it can't be earned.  There's something uncomfortable about that, almost scandalous.  We find pride in our ability to work hard and earn what we receive!  The only problem is we could never work hard enough or be good enough to achieve God's favor.  We disqualify ourselves if we think we've earned our own acceptance before God.  God is, well...gracious, and delivers His favor freely to us. All He asks for is a humble and repentant heart, willing to surrender and receive is all He wants to give to us.
