GODencounters [rhythms of grace] YG Church | Arlington, Texas

I am curious to know what thoughts are conjured up in your head when you hear the phrase, “rhythms of grace”?  It seems to me that life tends to be a driving beat of intensity.  If we’re not careful, we could end up loosing our true self in the pursuit of meaningless chasing after very superficial hopes.  Jesus comes along and offers us a counter cultural alternative to the rat race.  It’s not to say that we’re not going to be busy.  Certainly Jesus lived a life with a very hectic pace while dealing with a lot of curve balls that came at Him from all angles.  But as you look at the life of Jesus, He emanated grace wherever He went (aside from the occasional discussion the some of the church leaders of His day). 

During this GODencounters we’re exploring this theme of grace.  Thursday night we opened with Genesis and sought to answer the question of why we need grace in the first place.  Friday night we explored Romans 7 and addressed the issue of the Law (aka the 10 Commandments) as it pertains to grace.  Sabbath AM we will explore three sections of scripture to further focus our attention on this most incredible topic. 

I’d love to hear what grace means to you.  Or maybe you have a story to illustrate grace.

Grace and peace be unto you!
