Grace in action

Grace in the Everyday: When God Waves You Through

Have you ever had one of those moments where something good came your way, completely unexpected, and you knew it wasn’t because of anything you did? That’s grace. Some call it G.R.A.C.E. — God’s Riches Abundant at Christ’s Expense. However you spell it, it shows up in the tiniest details of life, little fingerprints of God’s kindness reminding us that grace isn’t earned — it’s simply given.

Knowing When to Be Silent and When to Speak Up: What Jesus Teaches Us About Self-Mastery

Yesterday I had a conversation that reminded me of something profound: Jesus always knew the right way to respond. Sometimes He was silent, other times He spoke up, and in every case His response was full of grace.

The Bible tells us, “Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt” (Colossians 4:6). That kind of wisdom — knowing when to be quiet and when to speak — is priceless.

In a world that glorifies retaliation, Jesus shows us the power of restraint, forgiveness, and self-mastery.
