Transcript

Grace,

The freely given,

Unmerited favor and love of God.

God's grace isn't something you can earn,

Not something you can work for.

I hope those words ease your mind right now.

Take a deep breath and let your eyes come to a close.

God's grace is freely given to you,

Even if you may feel as if you don't deserve it.

Whatever you have done that has given you the idea you aren't living up to God's ideals,

Forgive yourself,

Because God has and he's giving you his favor and love.

Take a deep breath and allow those words to settle in your mind,

Over your heart,

And deep in your spirit.

We are made in the likeness of God.

Therefore,

God has passed down to us his amazing characteristics,

Such as the ability to give grace to ourselves and to others.

So forgive that person who you feel isn't living up to your expectations.

Remember you can give them grace freely with no strings attached.

Free them of the burden of needing to impress you.

The driver who was moving too slow.

The co-worker who needed extra help at work.

The child who made a mistake.

The partner who couldn't read your mind and thus didn't do what you needed.

Extend them grace.

Recall what it's like to be relieved by the Father when he still grants you grace.

And remember grace cannot be earned by you or anyone else.

As this meditation comes to a close,

Give yourself a few moments to consider your thoughts during this meditation.

When you're ready,

Open your eyes and welcome yourself back to the day full of grace.
