Verse of the Day

Ephesians 2:8-9
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith

Grace, it's a wonderful marvelous thing. How awesome to know that God's glorious grace covers me, washes over me, and SAVES me from the evil sins that reside in all of our lives.

-and this not from yourselves

Praise God that I cannot save myself....for if I could...I would surely fail.

it is the gift of God

It is a GIFT. We just have to accept the gift. How? Through FAITH.

— not by works, so that no one can boast.”

So many people rely on the fact that they are a "good person" to get them to heaven. Not true. This verse tells the truth very clearly. We cannot save ourselves. The Lord can save us, and it doesn't matter how much bad or good we have done, we ALL need salvation and we cannot EARN it. It's a GIFT given to us and we must ACCEPT it. Once you figure that out...it's so easy. It's so easy. Just accept it, accept HIM. Make your life worth more....more than anything this world can offer.
