God's grace is something we humans just can't grasp. It's so hard for us to be able to just accept that God accepts us just as we are. I have thought that my doing good was what got me into heaven, but it seems what I was taught at an early age just wasn't true.
For some reason I thought my doing the right thing and trying to be perfect was my ticket into heaven. I don't remember who or where I was taught that but somehow it was.
God's grace is an amazing gift I just can't understand. Satan seems to keep us from clearly understanding it. I am loved and cherished by my Father in heaven. My sins are not just forgotten but forgiven. Jesus came to give life not to take it away from us.
There is a passage in the Bible that states that Jesus came to Earth full of grace. As we read about the life of Jesus we never see a moment where he didn't show grace. He was a healing messiah to the sick and needy. That was the grace he was full of. He was never ungraceful at all.
I often wonder if I met Jesus on a bench in a park what would the conversation be? It would be a conversation we all would dream of having. The talk would not be about him it would be about us. He would just ask about us. The attention we would receive would be the grace we would want from him.
Imagine talking to your hero or your most favorite person in the world. A person that you love to be around the most. A person that makes you feel great or most inspired. That would be what it would be like talking to Jesus. Yet, a thousand times better. His grace would blow us away.
I can't wait for that meeting in the sky. The day when we will be rejoicing in a shower of grace and having that conversation with Jesus. A day when all things will be set right and we can talk to Jesus for eternity! Believe in God's grace!
