Mercy and grace are two incredibly powerful concepts within Christianity, often misunderstood and misused. It is important to comprehend their true meanings to fully appreciate the extent of God’s love for us. Mercy can be defined as God not giving us what we truly deserve, while grace encompasses Him granting us something we have not earned nor deserved. As flawed beings, we all make mistakes and commit sins that warrant forgiveness and pardon.

Reflecting on my journey, I recognize how much I needed God’s grace during my early twenties when I found myself entangled in a destructive cycle of alcohol and drugs, constantly getting into trouble. Eventually, this led me onto probation where I unfortunately violated its terms – an offense that could have potentially landed me behind bars. However, through His boundless grace, the judge sentenced me to drug and alcohol treatment instead; an opportunity which kept me away from home for two years but allowed me to confront my addiction head-on. Since June 25th, 1986 – a day etched in my heart – by the sheer power of God’s love and grace bestowed upon me, I have remained clean and sober ever since. It is essential to acknowledge how God has blessed each person with His grace throughout their lives; these blessings may come in various forms: second chances at relationships or careers that seemed beyond repair or unexpected opportunities paving new paths forward amidst despair. Furthermore, extending our understanding of grace towards others enables us to foster compassion within ourselves. How has God given you grace in your life? How do you give others grace in their lives? ~ Bill Greguska

Hebrews 4:16  Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

What Is Your Perspective Of Grace?

  • When a police officer pulls you over for speeding, the officer believes your excuse and lets you free without a ticket.
  • When your doctor thinks you might have cancer, but when the tests’ results come back, you do not.
  • Having the exact amount of money to pay for a fast-food meal to the penny.
  • When we say something dumb, the other person does not judge us or make fun of fun of us for that.
  • When your boss, teacher, or parents set a rule to live by, you break it but do not get as much penalty as you ought to or possibly nothing.

How Does Grace Work?

What Do Grace Looks Like In Real Life...

Do you show grace to others by overlooking something they have done wrong to you?

What does the term “saved by grace” mean? It is an unearned favor God bestows because He loves us. Even though we did not deserve it, God’s Son Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins. Have you accepted God’s grace? God’s mercy saves us from this ultimate burden of our sins because Jesus Christ gave His life up freely to pay the penalty for them. These crimes originated with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.

God is Holy and will not allow evil to be near Him, enter heaven with Him, or find peace with God here on earth. Without Jesus dying to cleanse us from all our sins, we would be unable to enter heaven, and the consequence would be separation from God for eternity. It is more than just being kind or going to church. Learn more about being saved by grace below. ~ Bill Greguska
