each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins . . .
use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful
stewards of God's grace in its various forms. - 1 Peter 4:8, 10
You've probably faced scenarios like these: a demanding mother throwing a tantrum because you won't stay with her through the night. An ungrateful father dissatisfied with what you and your brother give him. A sister accusing you of not caring enough for Mum.
These are times when you've done everything you could. You've drawn clear boundaries, establishing what you will or will not do, and made clear how you are to be treated and respected. Yet someone insists on breaking the "rules" and behaving unreasonably. What can you do?
The answer: give grace.
Grace is what we received from God when He sent His Son to die for us. Grace is unmerited favour and kindness. It is not being judged by our words or actions. Grace sees past faults and goes beyond the surface of who we are, to whom God intends us to be. Our salvation by grace, says Ephesians 2:8, "is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God".
Many of us, however, tend to hoard grace. Having received grace, we keep it to ourselves. We find it hard to forgive others, like the unforgiving servant in the parable of Matthew 18:21-35. We find it easier to judge others by their failures, forgetting that God has overlooked our own.
But we can be grace givers instead. We can pass on God's gift as faithful stewards of His boundless grace (1 Peter 4:10). We can look beyond people's faults, forgive, bless, and love. We can lay down our rights and serve in humble submission to God, just as Jesus did in humility. We can love others deeply with a love that is able to see beyond "a multitude of sins" (1 Peter 4:8).
We can do all this because we have a secure knowledge of who we are in Christ. We can look to the cross, where the ultimate gift of grace was poured out on all mankind, and tell others, "I know who I am, so I'm empowered to see who God intended you to be, to freely give and to forgive you."
Just as we are reconciled to God by His grace through Christ's death and resurrection, grace will also reconcile us to others. It is a balm of healing on wounds and scars, and it has the power to change lives.
And even when actual reconciliation doesn't take place between people, and the grace offered is not accepted, the giver is still changed by the act.
Indeed, one of the most amazing things about being a conduit of God's grace is that we get something in return: freedom and maturity. We begin to step out of the centre and see others as God sees them. And we begin to live in true freedom - not at the whim of others - independent of their actions, words, and approval.
Freely we have received, freely we give.

PHOTO: "Father
God, thank You for Your grace, forgiveness, and abundant blessing. May I
be a conduit of this grace in the lives of others. May I have a heart
to pass on the same love and forgiveness that I've received. Give me
wisdom and discernment to speak words of grace, or to show grace in my
actions.
Through Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen!"
