While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body."
Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father's kingdom." Matthew 26:26-29
For I am in awe of what He has done for me. For He did it for everything I did in the past, to which He brought grace, He did it for right now the these moments as He is teaching me and is filling my life with grace, and He has grace for my footsteps of faith in the future.
There is NO place that you have been, or currently are, or will ever go that His grace is not sufficient for.
He desires for us to live life freely anf fully in His grace!
When we allow the love and joy that has been given to us to become a flaming fire full of passion inside our hearts we will desire to share it with others.
When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:17-20

Great thoughts! SOOOO true!!
This was beautiful! I love the way that you described the future--"grace for my footsteps of faith in the future." A genuine nugget, girlfriend!
Love ya,

When we really embrace that grace is God's unmerited favor upon us, how can we not but stand in awe of that? And, even more so, that He DOES want us to live in His grace! Why would we choose to live apart from it?!
Choosing to commune with God, to bring in your post's title, is choosing a life of grace given in abundance! That's great purpose!!
Nichole... God never ceases to blow my mind.
I too am in awe just from reading what you've shared here.
Praise God from whom all blessing are bestowed.
Thank you for allowing God to use you to reach me.
His unmerited favor should put us in such AWE that we would delight to obey all that He commands.

Such a meaningful post! Glad I stopped by to be blessed by it.
