There may be many things we want to change in the world. We may go out and try to tackle these things on our own. One of the first lessons we learn is that there are things we just can't do on our own. Saving ourselves is one of them!
We cannot work our way into heaven with good deeds. We cannot save ourselves through our own actions or the kind words of others. It is only through God's grace that we can be saved. When we have faith in Him and accept the sacrifice of His Son, God's grace can fill us and we can experience complete redemption. It is not our works, but the work of God that allows us to be made whole and to spend eternity with Him!
Have faith and accept God's grace so He can save you!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your grace in my life. Help me to continue to grow in my faith and to always accept the grace and mercy that You offer. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
