HI!
The little boy began "pitching a fit!"
The boy's father ran over and picked him up.
A visitor noted to the father, "If that were my child, I would have spanked him!"
The father said, "Yes, but you are not his father. You haven't spent the time

John 15:19
LIGHT from the WORD.
Grace is the undeserved, unearned favor of God.
Because Christians are saved, they do not find comfort in the world
But Christians are NOT "of the world."
Because we surrendered to Jesus as Lord, we are "chosen" by Him
But this grace goes even FURTHER!
Christian, because you have chosen Christ as Lord, He has chosen you
Thank God for this special grace which:
Love ya!
In the middle of the living room floor, he began dancing as if he had
ants on his feet.
He was flailing his arms aimlessly, caring not if they struck anything
or anybody.
He captured him in his arms and held him tightly.
Soon, the boy's temperament returned to normal.
with him that I have. You don't know the times we've spent in the doctor's

Grace called us through Christ to conviction, convincing and salvation.
And grace STILL moves upon Christians after salvation!
as others do.
Those who are "of the world" find some solace in comparing themselves
with each other, rather than with Righteousness.
They are of God, in Christ Jesus!
Thus they are God's children by adoption, and receive FURTHER
grace from the Father of Life and Light!
It is the grace that HOLDS us in the love of the Father.
for special grace!
Because we have believed, we do receive!
Yes, this is grace that convicts us when we sin.
Yes, this is grace that continually convinces us Jesus is Lord.
Yes, this grace is UNTO salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.
It is more than redemptive grace, it is preemptive grace!
It is the upholstery added to the skeleton of the couch of salvation.
It is the rainbow in the cloudy sky of the world’s confusion.
for special grace!
seals us in salvation,
encourages us when difficulty appears,
carries us when we are cursed for moral principles,
lifts us when we are discouraged,
and keeps us until that final day!!
