Fairness and Grace

Have you ever pondered these two words ... grace and fairness?  Is grace fair?

In our human minds grace isn't fair.  We do something and we deserve punishment - or someone does something to us and we think that they deserve to be punished.  Yet, God gives us grace through a relationship with Him that destroys our earthly understanding of fairness!

Grace isn't fair.  Yet, God gives it to us!  Maybe there's someone in your life this week that needs grace from you - it won't be fair ... but that's not what God's looking for.  He wants us to show the unconditional love and forgiveness that He has shown to those who follow Him!

Think of someone to extend grace to ... and extend it!
