God's Grace and Mercy

1Peter 1:3-7

3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, 5 who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7 These have come so that your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

In our time of weakness and when we are most vonerable we need to remember that God is faithful. His grace and mercy sustains us. They are the strength that God gives us to take it through it.


Pastor Derrick Ross "Grace is geeting what we don't deserve, and mercy is not getting we we don't deserve". "Jesus Christ is not our last hope, He is our only hope".
