The moment you try to add your own merit to what Christ has already done, you are subtracting from the cross. Rest today in the finished work of Jesus.

God’s gift of grace opens up a special type of freedom for a Christian. It empowers us to live by grace, because an immeasurable amount of undeserved grace has been given to us first.

The lesson is not that your circumstances will be comfortable. The lesson is that your circumstances do not limit God. When you cannot see a way forward, God is already commanding the provision.

Read and reflect on a portion of Scripture, devotional thought, and application questions based on Romans 1-3 and the gospel of grace.

Perhaps what seems like senseless suffering today is actually preparation for the moment when you see His face and everything finally, beautifully makes sense.
