PRACTICE: LOVE
This week, reflect on the Christmas message of unconditional love through grace by reading and reflecting on these truths each day.
God accepts me because of His grace. I don’t have to hide my “mess.”
Grace means that there is nothing I can do to cause God to love me more.
Grace means that there is nothing I can do to cause God to love me less.
Grace means that He accepts me unconditionally – just the way I am.
Thank God for His unconditional love and ask for His help to grasp the truth of grace. Paul’s prayer in Ephesians gives us words for that prayer.
“I pray that you being rooted an established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge.” (Eph.3:17a-19a NIV)
