The Complete Devotional With Josh NormanSample

Grace, Not by Works

Imagine finding yourself in a situation where you are unexpectedly awarded something despite never having entered any competition or submitted an entry. This scenario can serve as a meaningful validation of one's inherent worth and value rather than simply recognizing specific achievements or accomplishments. It's a powerful reminder that our connection with a higher power, such as God, is based on His unmerited favor and grace towards us rather than solely on our actions or deeds.

Practical Application: Reflect on the grace that defines your relationship with God. Let go of striving and rest in His grace. Share this message of grace with someone who needs to hear it today.
