It defies logic. It transcends reason. It violates every aspect of fair play.
God's gaze. God's face. God's grace.
I am baffled by the idea of God's fairness. "He is unfair," some people say. I agree.
If He was fair, we wouldn't be here. We would be condemned forever. We would be judged. The Bible tells us that the "wages of sin is death." But because of His great love, He sent His Son to die in our place. That by His death, we may all live. God's grace equals God's love.
Romans 5:20 says, "When sin abounds, grace abounds even more." God's love is bigger than our biggest sin, deeper than our deepest wrongdoing, wider than our widest imperfection. Grace meets us where we are. It doesn't leave us where it found us. The same grace that saved us will be the same grace that will change us.
That's what grace is. Unmerited. Undeserved. But it's yours. Freely given. Lovingly offered.
Receive God's grace today.
Have a great feast!
Everlastingly at it,
Randy Borromeo
