Grace is not about making excuses for our sins. Instead, it is a deep-seated gratitude for forgiveness and a life-changing commitment to say “No!” to all that is evil, corrupt, and wicked, no matter how appealing or common they may be in our culture.

Prayer
LORD, God of Jesus, my Abba Father, I praise you for the expensive grace and love that Jesus showed me. Now make me more determined to say “No!” to all the sins that caused my Savior to suffer and be shamed. Shape in me, by the power of your Spirit, a righteous way of life that is self-controlled and shows off your righteousness. In Jesus’ precious name I pray. Amen.
