Preparing for corporate worship February 5

We are a people produced by God's grace. Paul wrote about it in Titus 3:4-7: "But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind appeared, He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by His grace we would be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life." Oh the blessing of God showering grace, mercy and love upon us. Those showers drench our guilty, broken, works-oriented souls. His grace -- demonstrated especially in the person and work of the Lord Jesus -- is our hope. We will come together Sunday on that basis to sing His praises, thank Him for His mercy toward us and ask for His loving work in us. Oh, may we all come prepared to worship in the light of His grace.
