The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. Revelation 22:21
What is this little word that Noah finds in Genesis 6:8, grace? The little word continues all the way to the end of the Bible and is in the very last verse of the written Word. Grace, it seems like such a thing that we might not have in the one sense, that of a simple elegance and refinement of movement. At least, I have never been credited with grace in that regard except in the sarcastic way. I wonder if it is the elegance or the refinement that I'm missing? However, grace in the biblical sense is that unmerited favor of the Lord God that saves us. Like Noah, we obtain God's mercy from His love and by His grace. That grace was paid for by Jesus on the cross. And like Noah, that grace saves us from the destruction to come.
You may hear more of Noah in this time because of one statement from our Lord about the end times, "But as the days of Noah were..."
Let us find the ark of salvation in our Lord Jesus Christ!
