Merriam-Webster defines “grace” in great detail, with various contexts as both a noun and a verb, which I found quite interesting.
Here are just a few examples:
Grace [grās] – noun
1. a. Unmerited divine assistance given to humans for their regeneration or sanctification
b. A virtue coming from God
c. A state of sanctification enjoyed through divine assistance
2. a. Approval, favor; “Stayed in his good graces.”
b. archaic: mercy, pardon
c. A special favor or privilege
d. Disposition to or an act or instance of kindness, courtesy, or clemency.
Grace – verb
1. To confer dignity or honor on; “The king graced him with the rank of a knight.”
2. Adorn, embellish; “graveled walks graced with statues” —J. A. Michener

I don’t know about you, but reading those definitions made me incredibly grateful for grace in all its forms.
Most importantly, I’m thankful for God’s redeeming grace poured out for me despite all my failures.
My heart for sharing this blog is to glorify God and remind others that there is hope and forgiveness for those in Christ.
It is my prayer that you will come across this and find words to comfort you when you are weary and that my testimony of His grace and mercy will inspire you to seek Him in your own life.
