It takes a lot to surprise the authors of the Bible.
In the pages of Scripture, we find unflinchingly honest stories about every kind of failing—adultery, murder, cruelty, abuse. Nothing human is foreign to them. But they were startled—even shocked—at the undeserved and unexpected mercy of God for broken people like us.
Listen to Paul: “Now, most people would not be willing to die for an upright person, though someone might perhaps be willing to die for a person who is especially good. But God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners” (Rom 5:7-8).
The apostle John echoes the astonishment: “See how very much our Father loves us, for He calls us His children, and that is what we are!” (1 John 3:1).
The grace of God is always more—more powerful than our darkest failings; more thorough than our best attempts to put ourselves in order; more persistent than our deepest loyalties. “Love never gives up” (1 Cor 13:7).
Receive the gift that never ceases to amaze.
And stay in grace. -Bill Knott
