God\u2019s Grace \u00a0 Day 12
\nBut by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God\u00a0which was\u00a0with me.
\n<\/em>1Corinthians 15:10 NKJV<\/p>\n

Message:<\/u>
\nPaul, the apostle to the Gentiles, was speaking this to the church at Corinth.\u00a0 He was giving his testimony of what he was like before he met Jesus on the road to Damascus and had a life changing experience.\u00a0 He was testifying how God totally changed his life by giving him grace.<\/p>\n

Believers, couldn\u2019t we say the same?
\nI would hope we could all say that God\u2019s grace towards us was not in vain and that we could all testify how our lives were changed for the better by the grace of God.
\nAnd, that we could say, by\u00a0the grace of God I am what I am, <\/em>because the grace of God was with us.
\n<\/em>
\nBe blessed today as you ponder on this verse and give thanks for the grace of God.
