Read: Titus 2:11-12
I used to think of grace as something I received once—the gift that saved me when I first gave my life to Christ. But over time, I’ve come to realize that grace is so much more than that one moment. I’ve had seasons where I tried to push through my struggles on my own, thinking I just needed to be stronger or have more willpower. But every time I hit a wall, I’d be reminded that it wasn’t my strength that would carry me through—it was God’s grace
Often, we think grace is just about salvation—that moment when we first come to Christ. But the grace that saves us is also the grace that sustains us. It’s the grace that helps us say “No” to the things that pull us away from God. Too often, we rely on our own willpower to break free from sin, but God’s grace is the real source of our strength.
Titus 2 reminds us that grace does more than forgive our past sins; it empowers us to live a new life. It teaches us to walk in godliness and self-control. This is the grace that enables lasting change, not just superficial fixes. God’s grace is our constant help, giving us the ability to resist temptation and live in freedom.
