Full life in grace
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas
SUMMARY: We have received grace from God through Jesus Christ, but many of us fail to share it with others. We are called to be instruments of grace to those around us and to give a testimony of the new life we have received. The world is in need of grace and compassion, and we as Christians should cultivate these qualities in our lives. We have a ministry from the Lord to share the gospel of grace and it's time to start giving it. Let's reach out to others with the grace we have received and make a difference in their lives.
A Spirit of grace has been poured out on God's people. The gospel of grace is God's design to reconcile us to him through his son Jesus Christ. God has given us life together with Christ without noticing that we walked in disobedience, confused, wounded to death by many sins. We find grace in the eyes of God and it is still difficult for us to look forward to give a solemn witness of new life received by God's promised offering.
The theme of the Savior of the world is shown from the beginning in the Old Testament as the perfect sacrifice for man's sin consummated on the cross. We have found grace and we still don't understand it! A Spirit of grace that sustains us, that lifts us up, and that should motivate us to share it with others. We have found grace before God, but there is a temporary blindness that prevents us from seeing that we are the Lord's instruments so that others find the same grace.
We are partners of the same grace with which the heroes of faith were found before God (Heb 11), of the same grace with which Christ was found before the Father, but we do not know how to curb our impulses and it is difficult for us to understand that it It's enough. How many children die daily from the hunger bomb? How many fathers and mothers can take from the leftovers of opulence to take a crust of bread to their stomachs and feed their children? This is how the world goes, some with God, but still selfish and indifferent to human misfortune and others without God because for some reason they do not find the solemn testimony of the gospel of grace in the "dolce vita" of many of today's Christians. We have received grace, is it logical for us to give that grace so that the world may believe?
A life of fullness in Christ is lived to give of received grace. Many would come to the feet of Jesus if we cultivate grace in the evergreen garden of the gospel and give a simple flower of compassion to all who pass by in search of something better. Look around you and you will see that there are souls thirsty for a better life. We have all received a ministry from the Lord for a good witness and we do not give it. Or is it that we don't have it? Doesn't anyone see a little bit of Christ in our life? I do not believe it. We only lack conviction, boldness and even a little chivalry in the quality of Christian life, to be persevering and to remain in Him, who is the source of all grace.
Today can be a great day, just reach out to others with a handful of received grace and Jesus will smile at you once more.
God bless you!
