By Grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing: it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8
My morning devotions were so dead on for me today, I had to take this opportunity to ponder it aloud for a few minutes. Of course, taking the time to reflect about this huge verse takes more than just a few moments, but it’s a good starting point for me.
One of the biggest struggles for me is accepting that there is nothing I can do to contribute to my salvation. My mind can’t seem to wrap itself around the fact that I am saved though HIS Grace alone. Jesus is the Way, not my worthless contributions. My salvation is the result of God's own sovereign act. All my boasting must be eliminated because I have nothing to do with it.
How humbling. |
