Grace For Living

Romans 8:37 Yet in all things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

In his wonderful hymn "Amazing Grace, " John Newton wrote these famous words: "Through many dangers, toils and snares we have already come." And John Newton know where of he wrote! He was a man who had escaped death a dozen times or more before his life was changed forever by God's amazing Grace.

Each of us, if we stop and examine our lives in detail, can identify times when we went through our own dangers, toils and snares. And that's the point, we went through! Too often we are rescued or saved from calamity without looking back and giving God credit for his amazing grace that carried us through.

Take a moment today to think about all God has brought you through. Reflecting on His grace in the past will give you new confidence for the present and future.
