“Acceptance”

There are few things in our world as iconic as the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo statue, and the Taj Mahal. If a fire, earthquake, or war were to destroy these historical treasures, the world would lose more than works of art; we would lose part of our collective history. And only a fool would attempt to see any kind of insurance payout as a silver lining. Why? Because you cannot put a price tag on any of these irreplaceable works of art. In case no one has ever told you: the God of the Bible feels the same way about you – yes, you! The world would not be as amazing as it is without you because no one can fill your shoes. No one! This week, we look at the first part of The Cycle of Grace to discover how starting from a place of knowing we are accepted empowers us to move through life with an unshakable confidence and enduring hope.
