    Is Grace the cause of salvation, or is it a part of our lifestyle after wer'e saved? I ask because although I am saved, it feels like I didnt have any grace or relief to go on last week, so was God's grace a one-time event?

    God's grace is a permanent supply. We have ups and downs, but you notice you are alive and kicking this week and that you ended up coming through last week just fine!

    We all have times like that. The longer you walk with the Lord, the more you will find that those 'down' times get to you less and less. I've gotten to the point now where I can pray, "I'm sorry, Lord. I'm being a nuisance and I'm down and I'm glad you are hanging in there with me! Thanks."

    We are saved by grace thru faith. It is His gift that he will never take away, and no one can take it from us. His Amazing Grace sustains us, as well, even when we are in the middle of a traffic jam. His grace surrounds us, lifts us up, carries us, in every circumstance and situation. God's Amazing Grace is God's amazing love, the amazing Holy Spirit who comes alongside, even when I fall asleep at the keyboard. Good night. [​IMG]

    Even unbelievers are partakers of His grace.
    The rain has been called "common grace," falling on the just and the unjust alike, God causing it to fall.
    The miracle of birth.
    God provides food for unbelievers and believers alike.

    Grace is all around us if we look.
