if it ain ‘t grace, it ain’t God

Wednesday May 25th, 1 Peter 2:  4 As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to him— 5 you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Those living stones are often rejected by humanity because they don’t fit into the power structure.  Love one another, care for the least lost and lonely, pray for your enemies, forgive one another, all good things to say in church but try them in the real world and you will get some heat and more than a few mighty strange looks.  And yet, they are the foundation on which the church is built.  It is the foundation on which to live your life and the foundation to teach your children for their life.  Neither they nor you are likely to get rich off it, if that indeed is your goal, but they and you will have a foundation for happiness.  When it comes to living as a child of God, if it ain ‘t grace, it ain’t God.
