But – When God our Savior revealed his kindness and love, he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit. He generously poured out the Spirit upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior.
Titus 3:4-6 NLT

Only by God’s grace and mercy do we gain access to freedom from sin and death paid for by His blood. Saving faith conferred by the Holy Spirit, poured out by the Father, in response to the Son’s love and sacrifice.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast.
Ephesians 2:8 NIV

His kindness and love poured out sets you free to be all He created you to be. Look for evidence of His grace in your life today: the sunrise and sunset, another breath, another heartbeat. Let His grace fuel your faith and draw you one step closer to a life fully redeemed, restored, renewed.
