Gracious God

This week we look at another attribute of God, namely, that God is gracious. God’s grace is so surprising and unlike any human ‘grace’. God’s grace is unending, unfailing, unlimited, and unmerited. We often think we’ve got a handle on understanding it, but we’ll discover it’s barely possible to plumb its depths. God’s grace is more exhilarating, freeing and more life changing than we could possibly believe. God’s unmerited grace means that as His children we can never blow it, His grace never runs out. It comes to us no strings attached. It covers all our sin. And in Christ Jesus, all we need to do to receive it… is ask!
Exodus 34:6–7 (Listen)
6 The LORD passed before him and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, 7 keeping steadfast love for thousands,1 forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and the children’s children, to the third and the fourth generation.”
