Overwhelmed and Forgiven
"When we were overwhelmed by sin, You forgave our transgressions"
(Psalm 65:3).
It's all due to His grace. So how should we live?
How can we display His grace each day?
"Lord, because Your grace is underserved I should be humble; because it is costly I should be holy and loving; because it is unconditional I should be at peace...and through it all I should be supremely grateful every moment. Amen."
"Lord, help me be to others as You have been to me. Amen."

Thoughts from C S Lewis:
"We have in our day started by getting the whole picture upside down.
Starting with the doctrine that every individual is of 'infinite value,' we then picture God as a kind of employment agency whose business it is to find suitable careers for souls, square holes for square pegs.
In fact, however, the value of the individual does note lie in him. He is capable of receiving value.
He receives it by union with Christ.
There is no question of finding for him a place in the living temple which will do justice to his inherent value.
The place was there first.
The man was created for it.
He will not be truly himself until he is there."
"For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do" (Ephesians 2:10).
