Today at church I learned about grace. I learned that the world expects judgement so we should show them grace and they will be taken off guard. Christ taught about grace and how none of us will ever deserve it, but He gave it to us anyway, as long as we ask. We also must make the most of every moment and every opportunity to share our faith, and to show grace to the world, so they can see God's love through us. This message was incredibly powerful to me, especially in light of the recent situation.
Last week we learned about the Prodigal Son, and how his father was so excited that the son would come home, even though he had basically said "I wish you were dead, dad" and then squandered all of his stuff. This message was also really powerful to me, and I hope I am able to apply what I learned to my life.
I know God is speaking to me, and He isn't exactly being subtle. I just hope I don't let Him down (too badly, because I know I will mess up). Thank you, God, for being excited when your wayward son comes back to you, and for the grace you give us every single day.
