Through Jesus we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith. To put it another way it is by grace that we are saved. We have been given everything we need for life and godliness. It is grace that keeps us from falling. If we walk in the spirit we will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
All of that is truth from the word of God. Truth that I have forgotten. Lord show me your grace. May your grace be real in my life. May I swim in the depths of your grace floating in the love that surrounds me. Keep me Lord. You who are the first and the last. The Holy one. The ancient one. Hold me. Rock me to sleep. Gentle brush of your hand.
Where did I lose you? When did I forget you? When did I walk away and leave you holding the bill? Like it was your responsibility. But you paid it anyway. Thank you.
We not only received grace, but also apostleship. We have been given a purpose, a mission. An apostle is one who is sent by God on a mission. That is what we are, what I am. I have been sent by God to proclaim his truth into this land. And he has given me the power that I need. He is with me step by step. We have been given the unique privilege of declaring the goodness of God to the world.
