A New Bible Study

A few days ago I started a new study in the book of Ephesians, with the Bible Study group,   Good Morning Girls.


GMG is an online group that provides a new study several times a year, complete with a free Bible study e-book, and a method that walks you through small passages each day, called SOAP.

SOAP =
S - Scripture (read God's word, write it down)
O - Observation (write down 1 or 2 observations from the passage read)
A - Application (make 1 or 2 applications from the passage)
P - Pray over what God has shown you in his word

It's a simple method, but because you are writing and analyzing, it stays with you throughout the day.

So far, the greatest observations I've made, have been realizing that God lavished his grace upon us (day 3) and that he gave his glorious grace freely to those he loves (day 2).

How many times have I felt too condemned to accept his grace?   How unworthy (and I am) I felt of receiving his grace.   Yet, He gave it in abundance and freely, because we are his children and he loves us.

I can rest in these small tidbits for awhile.

How about you?

Do you know God's grace?

Have you received it as He intended?
