Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
A Comment
Our world is starving for grace and peace. As Paul reminded the church in Ephesus, grace and peace come from God. If you are looking for grace and peace this morning, then look to God. He is the only true and lasting source of such blessings.
A Prayer
O’ God, in Your mercy, pour Your grace and peace into our hearts this morning. As You give us grace and peace, help us point others to You, that they too might be blessed in Christ.
A Blessing
Grace, mercy, and peace be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ the Father’s Son, in truth and love.
