Living on the Foundation of Grace

Here are nine practical suggestions for cultivating a life built on the foundation of the grace of Christ:
  1. Start your day by thanking God for Christ's sacrifice and your salvation
  2. Set aside a regular time each day for the Word and prayer
  3. Spend this time alone with the Lord
  4. Start by asking the Lord to show you your sins, and confessing them
  5. Read Scripture for the purpose of finding one verse or idea to apply to your life
  6. Look for truths not just to obey, but also to trust in and praise God for
  7. Write out a prayer of meditation and response
  8. Every time you are convicted of sin, thank God for this evidence of His grace
  9. Every time you face a trial, thank God for this evidence of His grace
