As Surely As . . . .

As surely as the stars, planets, sun and moon declare the existence and power of God, nothing declares it more than a life redeemed by grace. Their walk, talk, act, and thoughts beam powerful testimonies to a dark world.

2 Corinthians 5:17  Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

To deny the power of God, one must rid the world of transformed lives and empty the pews and silence every testimony of grace.

Bill Gaither portrayed this grace in my favorite verse of his popular song Thanks To Calvary.

Then we went back to the house where we used to live
My little boy ran and hid behind the door
I said, "Son you don't have to be afraid.
Thanks to Calvary we don't live here anymore.
