GRACE FOR THE MOMENT | ONLY ONE THING COUNTS

1. Grace for the Moment

a) "Grace for the Moment" is a collection of thoughts that are inspirational. They are intended to encourage, to give hope, and to inspire the viewers.

b) Reading a thought can change the way you think about something.

2. Scripture Verse

i) 1 Corinthians 2:9 New Century Version (NCV)

But as it is written in the Scriptures:

“No one has ever seen this,
    and no one has ever heard about it.
No one has ever imagined
what God has prepared for those who love him.”
 
3. Thoughts

a) Think about the day Christ comes. There you are in the great circle of the redeemed... Though you are one of a throng, it's as if you and Jesus are all alone...

b) We are speculating now, but we wonder if Christ might say these words to you: "I'm so proud that you let me use you. Because of you, others are here today. Would you like to meet them?"...

c) At that point Jesus might turn to the crowd and invite them... One by one, they begin to step out and walk forward.


d) The first is your neighbor, a crusty old sort who lived next door. To be frank, you didn't expect to see him. "You never knew I was watching," he explains, "but I was. And because of you, I am here."...

e) It's not long before you and your Savior are encircled by the delightful collection of souls you've touched. Some you know, most you don't, but for each you feel the same... You feel what Paul felt..."I'm proud of your faith" (1 Thessalonians 2:19).


1 Thessalonians 2:19 New Century Version (NCV)
 
19 You are our hope, our joy, and the crown we will take pride in when our Lord Jesus Christ comes.
