God Gives Me Grace
This Christmas season you can fear not because God gives you grace. When the angel appeared to Mary, he told Mary to fear not because she had found favor with God. To find favor is to find grace, so another way to say it is to say “don’t be overcome with fear, because God gives grace. When God grants you favor and grants you grace you can see this in many ways. You can see His grace when He gives you peace, increases your faith, provides for you because He is faithful when God gives you a sense of His presence when you know the full extent of the pardon of your sin. You can also see God’s grace not only in the doors He opens for you, but in the doors He closes too. The circumstances of life can cause fear, but if there is any reason not to be overcome with fear is that the heart of God is grace.
