“But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:” | Romans 5: 20

Grace Alone.

I hear many folks talk about their part in salvation. I can’t relate to that.

My experience of grace was God doing everything and me doing nothing.

Sin abounded in me and I could not free myself from its deadly grip.

The only explanation as to why this sinner is saved is because God’s grace in Christ Jesus abounded to me.

Grace did much more than offer to save me, grace abounded in saving me.

I was dead – Christ gave me life.

I was lost – Christ found me.

I was blind – Christ gave me eyes of faith to behold him.

Grace Always.

I know that only the same abounding, reigning grace will bring me to glory.

Of all the many unimaginable joys of heaven, to love Christ with an unsinning heart must surely be a choice one.

Then I shall have an abounding heart of gratitude to thank Jesus Christ for his abounding grace to me.

Grace taught my soul to pray – And made my eyes o’erflow; His grace has kept me to this day – And will not let me go.

I’m looking forward to that!
