Gracefully Gracious Grace

The unmerciful servant learned a hard lesson that day….

Tis too bad he had failed to learn it before he failed to offer the same grace his master had extended him….

For he had been handed the gift of grace…

But failed to offer the same grace to another….

And to whom much has been forgiven much is always required….

John 1:16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

He used His grace on us so we would have some grace to use on others…..

He fills us with His grace so we will be full of that same grace…

Being filled with His grace mandates we be graceful

That means we are so full of grace that everywhere we go grace splashes out on others….

And such gracefulness produces in us the ability to be gracious….

Gracious when things are not comfortable…

Gracious when we are embarrassed….

Gracious in the midst of awkward circumstance….

Gracious when our prides would have us be otherwise…

I have been presented more than once the opportunity to be gracious when my flesh did not want to…

But how can one be covered and filled with His gracefulness and not be abundantly gracious

Therefore the sufficiency of His grace mandates my grace-filled graciousness

This thought brings me to this statement I tweeted a couple of days ago….

The most powerful words are those I choose to not say......

Such words can only be influenced by…

Gracefully Gracious Grace….
