Surrendering to Grace

Ephesians chapter 2 verse 10
"We are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Jesus Christ, So we can do good things he planned for us long ago"

This world tells us that no-one cares as there is hope found in or of this world.  As Christians we have the greatest hope that is not of this world but is in this world.  Our greatest hope comes from knowing that Jesus left Heaven to live a human life perfectly, so that we could have an example to follow.  Not only this he gave himself as a sacrifice by taking our place upon the cross to pay our punishment for all our sins.  Jesus paid it all for us because of his unbelievable love and care for us, us his children who he created to be masterpieces, created for a wonderful purpose that only we can complete.
"For it is within us that he begins his work. It is within us - in the depths of our creation - that he begins to weave a tapestry of grace. And it is you- with your cartload of issues and a journal full of scorched places - that he longs to say Neither do I condemn you. Go and sin no more".
