I use to wake up every day and try to earn
God’s grace. I would try anything to regain the love and grace God provides.
The beautiful thing is that he has taken it completely out of my hands. Grace
is not a contract where I have to fulfill my end of the deal. No. Grace is a
FREE gift. God is also not an Indian giver! So, you are pretty much set. All
you have to do is accept the gift.

FAITH-this is not of our own doing, it is the gift of God. Not by works, so
that no one can boast.
