Crazy

What would you think if someone walked up and handed you a check for $1,000,000 today? What if they drove you up to a beautiful house and handed you the keys? What if they led you out the front door and presented you with a brand new Corvette? How about a coupon that will allow you and anyone you want to take to travel anywhere in the world whenever you want to go? How would you feel? I think I would have to wonder what I did to get such a gift for free and why they would give me something so expensive just because they wanted to. I'm not sure I would have the words to express how grateful I was. Even more, what if they gave me something more valuable than the check, the house, the car, the travel or anything else you can think of? What if they gave you a gift that is impossible for anyone else to give you? How would you feel then?

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

Grace and peace to you.
