Contemplative Bible Reading

Hebrews 12:28 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us hold on to grace. By it, we may serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,

We have yet another benefit of God’s amazing grace. If we hold onto God’s grace, if we cling to it, if we are inseparable from it, then we can serve God acceptable.

Let us consider that. Let us consider our little attempts to serve the Creator of all acceptably. How could I ever in my wildest dreams think I could serve God acceptable. I cannot do it.

Add that to the list of things I cannot do without God’s grace. Add that to the list of blessings that come with God’s grace. Add that to the thanksgivings of daily life.
