Accept God's Great Grace Joyce Meyer, Daily Devotional
March 12
But where sin increased and abounded, grace (God’s unmerited favor) has surpassed it and increased the more and superabounded. — Romans 5:20
God conquers evil with good by pouring out His limitless grace upon you so that if you sin, His grace becomes greater than your sin. God’s love is the power that forgives your sins, heals your emotional wounds, and mends your broken heart.
Once you realize you are loved by God—not because of anything you are or anything you have done—you can quit trying to earn His love and simply receive and enjoy it.
Start by confessing aloud several times a day that God loves you. Speak it out and get comfortable with the thought of it. Bask in His love and let it saturate your soul. Once your heart is filled with the knowledge of God’s love you can begin to love Him in return: We love Him because He first loved us.
