"It is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace," Hebrews 13:9.
Talking about the inner self, here. The heart. The place in which and from which we take decision to action. Not just feelings and emotions. The place where our inner self sets its will. OK. So what makes that place strong? Well, for sure, not weird teachings. Not special foods. Instead: grace. Grace that leads us to endure the same social scoldings that Jesus dealt with. Grace to know we don't belong here in this land. Grace to live out a sacrifice acknowledging Jesus as Lord. Grace to do good. Grace to share what we have. Grace to please God.
When we visit with a brother or sister today we become Jesus' instruments to give and receive grace. And together we thank God from whose throne comes all grace.
