See grace in all

How you see God's grace
Embalm your view of sin and God,
if you see grace only as a sinners plea ,
you fail to see the cross,
If you see grace only as God's wrath,
You miss to see HIS love,
So behold the grace in all it is,
For Christ has paid it all.

----
By Subin Abraham Mathew

Many often people see grace as a means to cover their sin but fail to see that grace is justice in the form of a cross ; this is exactly what John Newton said "It was grace that taught my heart to fear - and grace my fears relieved (meaning he saw that grace was like a hammer on sin at the justice of God, and in the next line meaning that he saw grace to be an "soft cotton wool" cleaning his sins)

The Nativity - by Gari Melchers

This could be my first ever critique of art that I have ever written and that is because it is only recently art has captured my interest as much as this work. This write up is made both in English and German as I want to practice my German.  'The Nativity' by Gari Melchers.  I am not an art expert and my critique is from a layman's point of view, but bear with me. I have tried reading some information about the art and the culture behind it and I have my two favourite blog posts about the same work and yes,  I have shamelessly copied some of their thoughts.

God of Hope | Romans 15:13 | Sermon Notes | Podcast and YouTube Video

Sermon Notes: Bible Verse: Romans 15:13 Romans  Written by Paul / Saul Made up of Jewish and Non Jewish Claudius forced Jews to leave Rome and after 5 years they returned and there was a new church in the old place - one that was predominantly Non Jewish and therefore much of Romans is written with the slight aim to understand how Gentiles fit into the Jewish Messiah. This means that Gentiles are part of  Abraham family and how they were asked to unify in Love Now we come to the chapter 15. Saying that in this process of loving others, we often come across the failure of others. Lets go to the verse May the God of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. May the God of Hope God who gives us Hope Hope from what? Hope in what? He fills us Joy and Peace in our believing Through Holy Spirit Suffering produces endurance (Romans 5:3-5) endurance character character hope How come? - Because God's love has been ...
