In [Christ] we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace. Ephesians 1:7
“If you want to feel rich, just count up all the things you have that money cannot buy.”
Daniel Webster (1782-1852) in The Speaker’s Quote Book: Over 5,000 Illustrations and Quotations for All Occasions, ed. Roy B. Zuck (Grand Rapids: Kregel, 2009) 535.
As we move from a season of Thanksgiving to focus on the Advent of our Lord Jesus Christ, join me in celebrating the riches of God’s grace toward us: the greatest act of generosity and a priceless gift money cannot buy.
Also take five minutes to give thanks for the gift of love shared with family and friends, neighbors and co-workers, and brothers and sisters at church and in small groups. Money cannot buy the richness they bring to our lives.
