Many people think that the good things they do and the bad things they do are added up to how they stand before God. They think that, so long as there is more good than bad in their lives, they have a right to GOD’S favor. This is simply not true! Even many who claim to be Christians and acknowledge that God has paid a great price to bring about salvation, fell they have to earn this blessing by the things they do. It is very easy for us to think we have to earn God’s gifts. But a gift cannot be earned. Only wages are earned, Grace is defined as the unearned, unmerited favor of God. Grace is something you cannot earn by good works or deeds or even by suffering it is a free gift for God
