I heard a Pastor once say that thinking we can use up God’s Grace is like a little bird landing on the ocean and being afraid to take a drink because it’s afraid it will drink up the whole ocean.
Does that mean we are free to abuse God’s Grace? Absolutely not. We can’t hide from God. We can’t pull a fast one on Him. We aren’t going to pull the wool over His eyes.God not only sees the things we do. God not only hears the words we say. God sees our hearts. He hears our thoughts. He knows our intentions. If your heart isn’t pure God knows. If your mind is corrupt with evil thoughts God knows.
God’s Grace is accessible with repentance. God knows none of us are perfect. We all have least an occasional evil thought. We all sometimes will have an occasional evil intention. Do we act on it or do we repent and ask God’s forgiveness?
Jude 1:4 For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.
In His Name
