God's Riches At Christ's Expense = JOY



Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  It tastes even sweeter when you serve it with GRACE!

            James 4:6 tells us: “But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:
   ‘God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.’”

Grace is God's unmerited favor. It is kindness from God we don't deserve. There is nothing we have done, nor can ever do, to earn his favor. It is a gift from God.
I have heard grace explained by using this acronym: 
God's
Riches
At
Christ's
Expense

            In other words, Christ paid with his very life, so that we might become heirs of the Kingdom…..children of the King.  And as His children, we inherit the King’s riches!  Like ETERNAL LIFE with Him!  Doesn’t that make you want to sing with JOY?

Grace, grace, God's grace,
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within;
Grace, grace, God's grace,
Grace that is greater than all our sin.


            The words of the beautiful old hymn says it well.  Won’t you accept His forgiveness and grace today?  HE’s the only way to experience a JOYful eternity.

            Sing of God’s grace because of the JOY He has brought to your heart!
