Seek God’s Truth

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.—Psalm 139:13–14 (NIV)

The Gift of Righteousness

What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means!—Romans 6:15 (NIV)
Grace does not give you an excuse to continue in sin, but rather it empowers you to resist and overcome it. When you accept God’s grace, you undergo a transformation from the inside out. The Holy Spirit dwells within you, guiding and convicting you of wrongdoing. Your desire to align with God’s will grows as your connection to Him strengthens.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your incredible grace that saves and transforms me.
