Grace Changes Everything

This year I have been working on the concept of Grace .... accepting God's grace in my own life, even though I am not worthy... and most importantly, showing grace to those arround me.  It's easy to recieve grace - not so easy to be aware to give it.

We live in a world where we are taught to make jugdements from the time we are born - good/bad, hot/cold, nice/mean, pretty/ugly...we grow up atomatically making judgements we sometimes are not even aware of... Jesus NEVER judged.... he met the women at the well... he let her know that he knew of her current circumstances and background, but he didn't codemn her..he offered her the living water that would change her life.. 

Often, I am so busy judging that I don't spend much time offering my Jesus and his living water to people... I am working on skipping the judging part and moving along to the sharing part... Jesus spent very little time on people's current cirumstances...he knew that once they chose to follow him that they would no longer be the same...they would be changed by grace.

I want to change the world with grace.   Why??  Because grace changes everything.  There is power in grace... and I want to share that with the world around me... jugde less - share grace more...

Are you with me?   Let's judge less (and yes, even church is a judgemental zone) and share grace more....   

God alone is worthy to judge....it's not really in our job description to do that..so let him take care of that...just see people for who God created them to be.. and share his grace with them...

        and take a step back...

                 and watch and see.....

                        what our God can do....

Because Grace changes everything.
