Charles R. Swindoll Grace Quotations

Believing in grace is one thing. Living it is another.

Grace has to be the loveliest word in the English language. It embodies almost every attractive quality we hope to find in others. Grace is a gift of the humble to the humiliated. Grace acknowledges the ugliness of sin by choosing to see beyond it. Grace accepts a person as someone worthy of kindness despite whatever grime or hard-shell casing keeps him or her separated from the rest of the world. Grace is a gift of tender mercy when it makes the least sense.

Grace releases and affirms. It doesn't smother. Grace values the dignity of individuals. It doesn't destroy. Grace supports and encourages. It isn't jealous or suspicious.

Only grace-large doses, frequently displayed, released-will restore the wounded.

Pride leaves no room for grace.

God declared me righteous!

Grace is ours. Let's live it! Deny it or debate it and we kill it.

GRACE: All you can do is take it.
