A glance at GRACE...

John 1: 18 is a popular scripture we may know - "and the law came through Moses but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ".
 Something of note that the law did ( and still does) to everyone who follows it is that it points out every wrong and presents the limitations and incapability of same. It tells the observer "you have missed it again and that makes you a worthless sinner and a debtor". Every attempt to pay back is aborted and increases the indebtedness because the law is a regular reminder of sin.  
Grace on the other hand capitalises on the law's strength (which leaves its observers weak) to help whoever embraces it. Grace says "I'm aware you can't do it by yourself but I have it already done for you in Jesus Christ". Where the law condemns, Grace forgives and helps us walk tall. Where the law abandons, Grace embraces us & picks up. Where the law leaves dirty and weak, Grace cleans up and strengthens. Where the law killed, Grace made alive. The antithesis goes on and on. "Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more" Rom 5:20.
People, all that grace came to do for us is to better our lives in every way and it will do us so much good if we do not frustrate or neglect the grace of God upon us. Let's join Paul in saying confidently "I do not treat the grace of God as meaningless"-Gal 2: 21(NLT). The Amplified version is very expressive: "[Therefore, I do not treat God’s gracious gift as something of minor importance and defeat its very purpose]; I do not set aside and invalidate and frustrate and nullify the grace (unmerited favor) of God". Do have a great time as you give full expression to the life of God we have received through grace.
