GRACE CHANGES EVERYTHING (PART II) We can only receive God's grace when we are honest about our need and admit we're not self-sufficient. Perhaps you have accepted God's grace on an intellectual level, but have failed to receive it where it counts in your heart and soul. You end up spinning your wheels trying to be "good" because you really can't believe God loves you just as you are. The greatest gift you can give your children is to step into the reality of God's grace. This means letting go of the idols of performance that have given you a false sense of worth. When you experience the warmth of this truth, your whole perspective on life and relationships will change. You will be able to extend this grace to others, especially your children. Allow your weaknesses to lead you and your children to His grace.
