Scripture reading
But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions – it is by grace you have been saved.
–Ephesians 2:4-5
Thought of the Day
The great playwright Eugene O’Neill once wrote,
“Man is born broken. He lives by mending.
The grace of God is glue.”
Pretty good observation, I think. This is not an overly new thought though. Read just about any of Paul’s letters. He knew this to be true, too. Paul was held together with that glue. How about you? Do you need to be mended a bit today? If so,I know just the stuff for you. It is called grace.
Prayer
Awesome God, Mend me today with your grace. Amen.
