Topic: Mercy And Grace

There is no human work or human effort that can melt the icy steel wall between God and ourselves. We cannot build a ladder to Heaven. Even if we could build the ladder, we could not climb it. We cannot do handstands, cartwheels, or other physical acts to get our soul in a condition to be saved. Only grace can add the heat that melts the icy steel barrier between God and your soul, and it is grace that produces the result of your soul being saved. It is the kindness and mercy of God's grace in the form of Christ's nail-scarred hands that reach through the steel wall to touch your heart. It is His grace that enables you to walk with Him and talk with Him. The continual mercy of Christ enables Him to overlook your human weaknesses. His mercy and grace understands your temptations, and your times of falling away. His mercy and grace keeps you within His hand when you are tempted and besieged on every side during your journey here on earth. It is God's mercy and grace that understands you always want to do the right thing yet you are weak and sometimes end up doing the wrong thing. It is God's mercy and grace that continuously puts up with you repeatedly making the same mistake. It is His mercy and grace that keeps you in His forgiving hand.
