By God's Grace

Of this gospel I was made a minister according to the gift of God's grace, which was given me by the working of his power. Ephesians 3:7

We use the title phrase somewhat sparingly, not to deny God His credit, but so that it does not become a vain repetition inserted into everything we write or say. God's grace is precious to us, and we want it to remain so. Certainly to those who believe in Jesus, God's grace is the very lifeblood flowing through our spirit. We could easily say that we got up this morning by God's grace, fixed a breakfast by God's grace, and went to work by God's grace. Too much of that repetition though to our earthly flesh, and the phrase can become meaningless when we want it to have great meaning.

And have meaning it does! For by [God's] grace are we saved through faith, and not of ourselves it is the gift of God. (Ephesians 2:8) Even in the scriptures it is understood that when we say 'by grace', it is to say 'by God's grace' as it always comes from and belongs to Him. And about grace, His grace, any of us might go on and on. Which we do since by His grace we have life in His Son, Jesus Christ.

Have a faithful day in God's grace!
