God’s grace is about His love and favor. It’s about a life of righteousness and reconciliation. It’s about a life in fellowship with God. Grace is something we don’t deserve, but we desperately need. It is a free gift that can never be paid for, nor paid back. So, what is our response to this grace? (Especially if our response is to not continue in our sins?) The best way we can respond to God’s grace is by using the grace we have received to help others. This post shares six things you can do to live the kind of life that shows God’s grace to others.

"Respond to God's Grace" by Pete Briscoe

Read
1 Peter 4:10

Pray
Father, You are so good. You love so well. And You have shown me Your grace in such amazing ways. Show me to whom You would like me to extend Your love and grace. Then, give me the boldness to do it.

Reflect
Do I respond to God’s grace by extending it to others?

Respond
Meditate on the goodness of God -- on His love, His favor, His grace. Then turn around and extend that love, favor and grace to those whom God puts in your path each day.

Grace is a gift—something that can never be paid for, nor paid back. But we can respond to God’s grace by sharing it with others. The simple act of sharing God’s grace can be a life-changing experience for you and for others. Responding to God’s grace includes loving others, but also forgiving others. The next post explains how forgiving others can only be done as an extension of God’s grace.
