Grace, like oxygen must be breathed in to bring life. It is not enough that it floats about in the ether. Grace needs to be a vital part of who we are in Christ. Perhaps, when Jesus taught us to pray: "Forgive us as we forgive," Matthew 6:12, this should be a template for action that is far more than just forgiveness. Perhaps, everything God does for us needs to be reflected through us like the sun's rays shining through the cathedral stain-glass windows featuring the saints. We are now those saints!

Grace, like oxygen must be breathed in to bring life. It is not enough that it floats about in the ether. Grace needs to be a vital part of who we are in Christ. Perhaps, when Jesus taught us to pray: "Forgive us as we forgive," Matthew 6:12, this should be a template for action that is far more than just forgiveness. Perhaps, everything God does for us needs to be reflected through us like the sun's rays shining through the cathedral stain-glass windows featuring the saints. We are now those saints! God's grace is the unpretentious and humble demonstration of His holiness in the person of the Savior of men. Grace is the transparent revelation of His character which was on display when God walked among us in the person of His Son. Many will not see what the few who come to believe in Him will see. It is our privilege as His witnesses to be ambassadors of His grace, but we must be transformed-lest this calling comes in conflict with those old carnal patterns of thought and behavior that must now be forgiven and forgotten and replaced by what best heralds through us God's great heart for His creation. This book reflects a desire to go deeper into all of this. Indeed, the inspiration of God's Word reveals secrets about our life in Christ but we must prayerfully mine them in deeper and deeper excursions into the Word. Grab you pick-ax and come along! Solomon wrote "The glory of God hides a matter, but it is the honor of kings to search it out" [Proverbs 25:2].
