A gift cannot be earned otherwise it is not a gift

WORDs of Saving Grace - a gift cannot be earned, otherwise it is not a gift

Romans 11:6  And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

We can never repay God for the gift of His Son. Yet we allow ourself to feel as though we must pay back the amazing grace He has given us.

Think about it, what if you gave your child a gift and they continually tried to work and earn a way to pay you back.

That is not God's will for His children. Rather to allow the gift of His grace to shape and mold us into the blessed children He saved by His Amazing Grace.

Romans 5:20, 21  ... But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
