Grace is simply God’s unmerited favor. In other words, he gives us what we don’t deserve (grace) and doesn’t give us what we do deserve (judgment) because of Jesus’ death on the cross. But it’s more intimate than that: Grace is God’s blessing overflowing into our lives. To experience God’s grace is to open gift upon gift of comfort, companionship and empowerment. In his grace God saves us, strengthens us and sanctifies us. He freely offers us the gift of grace, but we must accept it.
