I will sing to the LORD as long as I live. I will praise my God to my last breath! May all my thoughts be pleasing to him, for I rejoice in the LORD. Let all that I am praise the LORD. Psalm 104:33-35 NLT

This Psalm gives definition to what happens to a man or woman who has become overwhelmed by God’s grace. I will sing to the LORD as long as I live.  I will praise my God to my last breath! God’s grace renews our heart with joy and thanksgiving and these emotions influence our goals, our desires and our thinking. His grace brings our character to life just as yeast brings dough to life. Once the yeast has been put into the dough, the dough will never be the same. Once grace has been put into a man or woman they can never be the same. May all my thoughts be pleasing to him, for I rejoice in the LORD.  Today choose to let his grace bring to life your actions and your words. Your delight of the Lord will bring a great refreshment to you and those who know you best. So go ahead and allow yourself to live in the blessings of his grace. Let all that I am praise the LORD!  Enjoy!

God saved you by his grace through faith.  And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God.  Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.  Ephesians 2:8, 9 NLT

Whatever may be true about sin and whatever has happened to all of us because of it, God has done infinitely greater by his grace through faith in Jesus Christ. God saved you by his grace through faith.  Where sin increased with all its forms of regret and guilt, right there grace overwhelmed with life and freedom.  Grace is the expression of God’s love given to us all in Jesus the Christ.  It is only grace that could make sin yield in our lives.  The effect of grace upon our life is faith and therefore faith becomes the first result of the new life bestowed.  Here the healing from all our condemnation begins.  This really is a gift worth opening; it will renew your life forever.  Today is a good day to experience the gift of grace that has been given to you.  Here your heartaches have a place to be made whole; regrets from your past will no longer be the ruin of the day.  Remember, Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done.  You can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. God saved you by his grace through faith.  You might just find yourself filled with joy right down to the depth of your soul.  God’s gift of grace is yours now and forever, it’s His promise.  Enjoy!

We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.  In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.  May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you. 

Psalm 33:20 - 23 NIV

When we were children, at least for most of us, our parents protected us, provided for us and cared for us.  It was here we learned the beginnings of trust, hope and love.  No matter how rich or poor we were, we never thought about it, we just relaxed through the day and when we went home from school or play we knew that food, shelter and love would be there.  Somewhere along the journey we learned about stress, anxiety and peer pressure, none of which we enjoy.  When we let ourselves be overwhelmed by grace, worry leaves the room as well as attitudes that are less than outstanding.  Grace does much more than save us for heaven, it sets our heart and mind free to experience and enjoy the love of God. In him our heartws rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. On this new day that has never been, may you enjoy living right smack dab in the middle of his grace.  You will enjoy the relaxing freedom of his presence; know the whisper of his voice and the joy of his salvation that calls you son or daughter.  A smile will become natural as well as praise and thanksgiving.  Your emotions and thoughts will be refreshed and you will clearly know what it means to be delighted in the Lord.  Enjoy!

Imitate God, therefore in everything you do because you are his dear children.  Let there be no sexual immorality, impurity or greed among you.  Such sins have no place among God's people. Obscene stories, foolish talk, and course jokes - these are not for you.  Instead, let there be thankfulness to God.  Ephesians 5:1,3,4 NLT

What is commonly called salvation in Jesus the Christ is the freedom that his grace gives to our character. Imitate God, therefore in everything you do.  If the things listed here in God’s Word were so outstanding, we would have stayed in them and rejected the beauty of his grace.  Here we can experience the refreshing nature of grace as it renews our values, our thinking, our emotions and our attitudes towards God, family, friends and co-workers.  On this new day may you celebrate the freedom you have in his grace to live in the joy of thanksgiving. Let there be thankfulness to God.  Here, you and everyone around you will experience a delight in relationships with the Lord and each other. As you live and imitate the freedom of his grace no one around you will be irritated.  Transparency, kindness and integrity will just be who you are.  Enjoy!

Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires.  Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin.  Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law.  Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.  

Romans 6:12-14 NLT

The cause of actual freedom is called God’s grace. Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law.  Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.  Constantly trying to do right was never the condition for our freedom.  God never saved us by law. What the requirements of the law had to do with our salvation was to provide the way for sin to express itself so that we might see our actual nature and receive God’s grace through Jesus the Christ.  God never withholds grace because of sin; in fact grace is the infinite flow of God’s perfect love.  Today celebrate the freedom of God’s grace in your desires and your emotions. Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin.  Grace has provided the freedom for all wounds to be healed so that you may enjoy the beauty of who you are through Jesus Christ.  Rejoicing, peace and encouragement are yours know and forever when you live in the freedom of God’s grace. Enjoy!

God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.  

2 Corinthians 9:8 NIV

There is something absolutely enjoyable when we are experiencing a life of grace. God is able to make all grace abound to you.  We live relaxed, refreshed and renewed so that good works (kindness, patience, gentlness, love and joy) are expressions of who we are because of God’s grace in Jesus Christ in us. So that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. Wow!  Talk about being renewed, how about actually living in a place, no matter where we are found, where life is expressed without condemnation of any kind.  Grace puts a smile in what we say and in what we do. So, do you want it?  Then believe what God has said.  On this day may you experience what it is like to abound in grace For our Lord is able to make it happen!!!  What you find to do today may just look like grace in you abounding in every good work.  I pray the tones in your voice and the expressions from your face will cause others to feel blessed, valued and loved. God’s grace just makes a good day.  Enjoy!

The LORD does not look at the things man looks at.  Man looks at the outward, but the LORD looks at the heart.  1 Samuel 16:7 NIV

One of the beautiful things along our journey through life is when we feel something with all the emotion of our heart.  This is not an academic statement, it is something that touches the very fiber of our being.  The beauty of God's grace is that it takes our belief in the Lord Jesus the Christ from believing into a relationship with him that touches the very soul of who we are.  Grace impacts our heart like nothing else can and in this place our desires and emotions become free to express and receive  love, kindness and encouragement without the feeling of embarrassment.  Here our marriage, our children and our relationships are refreshed in ways that cause us to praise and give thanks to the Lord.  On this new day that has been given to you as a gift from the Lord, may you enjoy this freedom of his grace.  May your heart be refreshed and encouraged along this new journey and may he then give to you the desires of your heart as you delight yourself in his grace.  In this place there is no regret or sorrow.  Enjoy!

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.  God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort.  He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.  When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.

2 Corinthians 1:3, 4 NLT

Sometimes in the journey of our life things happen that cause our thinking and our emotions a lot of pain.  When this happens it seems so natural for stress to begin to take over our thinking, our feelings and even our sleep.  This natural stress never seems to bless us or change our circumstances.  But God comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.  It is through his grace that he reveals his love and encouragement to us in some of the most difficult times.  His comfort (grace) begins to renew our thinking and our emotions which brings a sense of peace in difficult times.  On this new day let His grace (comfort) through faith have its beautiful way with the details of your life.  Comfort is yours and when enjoyed, allows you the joy of blessing others where ever you find them.  Your life will be the visible actions of his encouragement, his kindness and his comfort and all this will bless your socks off.  Enjoy!
