My devotions for yesterday and today were regarding God's salvation through grace,by faith alone. And these were the two passages : Ephesians 2 and Romans 3.
I found it abit..*dont know how to complete the sentence lol* But yeah.It was amazing to be reminded of His salvation,His grace that saved me. and from the bottom of my heart,thank God for that salvation that comes by grace. Because by works,i and all of mankind would have failed very miserably. In this world where there's no such thing as "Yours for free!" ,yet the most important and awesome thing that there could possibly be is free. An open gift,an open invitation,an open hand that reaches out to us and all we have to do is say 'yes' and believe and follow that hand.So simple, yet how amazing and uncomprehensible is that gift. And all because He first loved us.First chose to die and suffer for us while we were still sinners.First reached out to us and call us to come to Him and be called His own. So amazing is this amazing grace that there will never be enough words in all of the human vocab to fully describe or comprehend it.
Just to share this verses that really struck me when i 'accidentally' saw and read it:
Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, "So shall your offspring be."Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah's womb was also dead. Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. - Romans 4:18-21
ah yes.i hope i remember that always and start to live by it.Because i know many times i dont.
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see
T'was grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, My Saviour has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, amazing grace
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbid to shine
But God, who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine..
You are forever mine.
Be blessed :)
