But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. (Genesis 39:21)
As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. (1 Peter 4:10)
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

God blesses those who offer grace

Extraordinary afflictions are not always punishment for extraordinary sins, but can be tests for extraordinary graces. Jesus suffered the most extraordinary affliction to leave us infinite grace. We should approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and find grace when we need it. We are not given to provide grace, but we need to offer it to others, especially to those we would like to judge and condemn. The world is in need of grace, and it should come from our hearts, eyes, and hands. We should dress ourselves with grace and offer it to our neighbors, and when we give freely, we receive freely. Our hearts should be strengthened by grace. Read more...
