How to be a reflection of grace

March 13, 2013

Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times.”

Matthew 18:21-22

I was watching the Vancouver Winter Olympics a few years ago, and was amazed at the magnificent athletes I saw. One night, while watching the ice skating competition, I kept hearing the same word again and again: Grace.

“She has such grace on the ice,” the announcers would say. But what did they mean? Well, in that context, grace means beauty. But it carries with it something deeper – a sense dignity and confidence that goes beyond good athleticism. And really, that’s the same idea we talk about when we talk about showing grace to others.

Anything that’s graceful is appealing to others. Gracious people shine in the midst of uncouth and boorish behavior. They’re attractive to others because people simply feel significant when they’re around them.

One of the best testimonies of Christ you can give to the world is the grace you show to others. But it’s not a grace that comes from within you; it comes from God. So let your grace shine like a light before others so they can see a clear picture of the grace of Jesus in your life!

REFLECT GOD’S GRACE TO OTHERS BY TREATING THEM WITH DIGNITY, RESPECT, AND ALWAYS SHOWING FORGIVENESS

Get the best from 2012 to be your best in 2013


Dear Friend,

While many pastors shy away from addressing controversial issues, I sincerely believe you need to hear straight, “bulls-eye” biblical teaching on many of today’s hot topics. Not only to grow in your faith as a believer, but to give winsome, compassionate answers to the hard questions our culture is asking.

That’s why I want to send you a special new resource today – my CD series called The Best of 2012.

This series contains 10 of my most popular and compelling messages from 2012, and it’s a resource that’s sure to help you in 2013 because it includes messages such as, “Are All Religions the Same?”, “Lessons on Leadership,” and “What Is a Christian?”

The Best of 2012 is my gift to thank you for your donation to help PowerPoint continue to proclaim God’s Word and truth ’til the whole world hears. So please request your copy when you give today.

Thank you!
