Grace

• God is full of grace (Exodus 34: 6 )-He passed in front of Moses and said, "I am the LORD," " I am the LORD, the merciful and gracious God.  I am slow to anger and rich in unfailing love and faithfulness."
• God is slow to become angry (Psalm 86: 15)-But you, O LORD, are a merciful and gracious God, slow to get angry, full of unfailing love and truth.
• God's grace makes salvation possible (Ephesians 1: 7-8)-He is so rich in kindness that he purchased our freedom through the blood of his Son, and our sins are forgiven.  He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.
• God accepts us by his grace (Ephesians 2: 8-9)-And so God can always point to us as examples of the incredible wealth of his favor and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us through Christ Jesus.  God saved you by his special favor when you believed.  And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God.
• God's grace gives us hope (1 Peter 1: 13)-So think clearly and exercise self-control.  Look forward to the special blessings that will come to you at the return of Jesus Christ.
