Scripture: Acts 15: [11] No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.” <\/p>\n
Observation: I\u2019m so self-centered it is hard for me to believe there is nothing I can do to be saved. I try to impress God with my service, looking holier than though, I even think I can make a difference on my own and forget I\u2019m nothing, nothing but God\u2019s creation. The grace of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has allowed me to be able to serve. Without Jesus and the Holy Spirit I couldn\u2019t even serve myself. Apart from God I can do nothing and I need to realize this every minute of every day that everything I do and have is only by grace.<\/p>\n
Application: Do what God allows me to do and do it for His glory. Point others to the grace of God and tell them my testimony of an ever loving God. Thank God throughout each day for His grace as I come to each blessing He puts in my life. When I accomplish anything that I need to realize it was only through the grace of God and give Him the glory.<\/p>\n
Prayer: Lord forgive this arrogant servant help me repent of my evil ways and draw me closer to you. Show me how to receive your grace in humility and help me fulfill the purpose you have created me for. All the glory and honor is yours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
