Today grace will show you what gets in between you and God so that it no longer will—welcome it when it does!

False grace leaves you trapped to repeat evil, having simultaneously silenced the voice of your conscience and of the Holy Spirit.

Grace risks upsetting you by showing you what upsets God so that you might see and long for something better with him.

Cry out for grace to know and live the truth today, that there is really only one person’s opinion that matters enough to reshape your life around.

If the grace you’ve received does not urge you to hate your sin at all costs and cling to your God, then it’s not been real grace.

Two guarantees for today: grace will point out your need AND grace will supply it. Welcome both and you’ll walk in the Spirit.

You’ll only welcome grace if God gives you grace to see your need of it.

Grace doesn’t excuse you so that you can remain as you were. Grace gives you one more chance to be what God’s remade you to be.

If the Spirit is alive in you, plan today both to repent of evil and to celebrate new evidence of his sanctifying work in you.

Trying to find rest and refreshment in anything other than Christ today will only leave you more tired and worn out.

You can tell you’ve received genuine grace by how it moves your heart to hate sin that much more and to love the God who wanted you more than he wanted to cling to his own life.

When you see your need of grace today, be encouraged: it means that God is already in the process of giving you the grace you need.

Hoping that you’ll find where you belong apart from Christ today, will only leave you feeling more unloved and desperate than before.

Today you will need grace to show grace. The gospel is Christ’s assurance that you will have the grace you need.

Corporate worship this Sunday reminds us that neither God’s justice, patience or kindness prevails over the others but that all are fully satisfied in Christ.

Cry out today for grace to repent of sin and for grace to endure suffering. In a fallen world, you will need both.

In a broken world, everyone sins and everyone suffers. You’ll either find grace or look for a substitute, but you’ll still have to face both of them today.

Grace neither excuses or covers up sin. It does something better. It points out and pays for sin in order to remove it completely, forever.

Does God need to develop in you a greater sense of his justice or his patience in order for it to reflect the value it has within himself?

If your Shepherd preferred his death to yours, then you do not need to fear the wolves, dried up streams or barren pastures that you will face today.
