Good morning people who meditate on the goodness of God

Revelation 1:4 NIV John, to the seven churches in the province of Asia: Grace and peace to you from Him Who is, and Who was, and Who is to come, and from the seven spirits before His throne.

Grace is the divine influence upon the heart, and its reflection in the life; including gratitude.

“What are the greatest influences in your life? What moves you? What impacts you? What shapes you? What gets your attention and focus?”

Grace is God’s influence in our lives, and I believe this is His desire for every person that He created into existence. God wants to be our life, our hope, our peace, our joy, our everything. God wants to change our world.

If I think about something influencing us, it does not come with some fleeting, passing, casual thought. Influence happens as a result of attention being given to something.

“Does God get your attention? Is your heart turned towards Him? Is your face turned towards Him?”

I pray we all have an encounter with and pursue the God of Love today.
