From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Monday, December 16, 2024: Rejoicing in the Gift of Grace

Dear Beloved,

As we journey through this Advent season, I want to remind you of the incredible grace that God has poured out upon us through the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. The joy we celebrate in this season is not just the joy of receiving gifts or gathering with family, though those things are certainly special. The joy we are called to experience is rooted in the grace of God—the gift of salvation that we could never earn on our own.

This is a time to reflect on the fact that we have been saved by grace alone, through faith, as a free gift from God. The Apostle Paul reminds us in Ephesians 2:8-9 that this grace is not something we can boast about, but something that should lead us to gratitude, humility, and true joy. As we look to the coming of Christ, let us remember that this joy is a result of God’s great love and His amazing grace, freely given to us.

I encourage you today to embrace this gift of grace with a heart full of thankfulness. And as you experience the joy of salvation, may you also be a vessel of grace to others, sharing the love and joy that God has so freely given you.

In Christ's love and grace,
Brother Jesse
