How should I respond to God’s grace? - Mercy & Grace - TouchPoints

Philippians 1:6And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.

When you understand God’s grace, you will desire to grow more like Jesus in response.

2 Corinthians 8:9You know the generous grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that by his poverty he could make you rich.

Grace involves self-sacrifice, giving something up in order to give it away.

Daniel 9:18“We make this plea, not because we deserve help, but because of your mercy.”

Recognizing and requesting God’s grace takes humility, for we realize that we do not deserve it—which is exactly why we need it.
