Grace. This word could be used for naming your baby girl.
It could be used for someone who is found guilty to plead for mercy.
It could be used for someone who flows effortlessly in sports.
There are many different ways to use this word. Yet, the most important one is found in the Bible.

—Grace is unmerited.
—You can’t earn it.
—You can’t buy it.
—You can’t inherit grace.
—You can’t study hard to achieve it.
—You can’t wish it to come to you..
The only way to get grace from God is to ask for it wholeheartedly, with humility and contritely. This means that a person can only touch, feel, see and hear God spiritually when they let go of all pride, sin, heartaches that keep you locked in a chain of burdensome self-condemnation or guilt. Allow God to give this unmerited and unwarranted gift of new life to you.
The grace of God can give you such incredible peace, that it surpasses any understanding that you may have about what God’s love, mercy and grace are.
Oscar Roca
There is nothing you have done that can keep you away from God’s grace. The only way that God will not forgive you is if you don’t humbly ask Him to!
Oscar Roca
All this to say— Make today the day that you empty yourself of all the guilt and suffering of your past! Allow God to regenerate you from the inside out. Allow Jesus to be the Savior of your life by asking Him to forgive you of any sin—wrongdoing you have done today and in the past. I promise you that He will bring you peace from all the burdens you may be struggling to carry. Allow Him to carry those burdens and toss then into the never ending depths of His love. Make today the day you finally rid yourself of all things that are causing you to stay stuck in the past. Of anything that has you chained up and not moving forward to a fulfilling life with God and others in your life.
Don’t wait, if you are reading this, it’s no coincidence! Make the decision and commitment to Jesus. He in turn will commit Himself to you!
…6 Seek the LORD while He may be found; call on Him while He is near. 7 Let the wicked man forsake his own way and the unrighteous man his own thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that He may have compassion, and to our God, for He will freely pardon. 8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” declares the LORD.…—Isaiah 55:6-8 Berean Study Bible
