Richard Blackaby writes that when we truly grasp its depth we would not dare withhold it from others. Be a Channel of GraceĪnytime we find ourselves more “pool” than “channel,” it’s time to reflect again on God’s underserved grace in our own lives. What about you? Are you a channel of grace or a stagnant pool. To be a “channel” that shares the grace with others that God has lavished on them. As someone who receives His constant supply of glorious grace, I should willingly share it with everyone around me. But God calls me to be a channel, not a pool. I fail to pass along God’s undeserved loving kindness to others and instead hoard His grace like a selfish child. Instead of being a channel of God’s grace to others, I’m like a stagnant pool.
Real grace is extending God’s loving kindness when they don’t deserve it.
In fact, being “gracious” when it’s easy, when they deserve grace, really isn’t grace at all. When you’re forced into almost constant proximity with the same people, for days on end, sometimes it’s hard to be civil, much less gracious.īut that’s exactly what God calls His people to be – gracious. The stress of the last few months has had far-reaching effects.
