Grace is God’s doing. It’s only by grace that we are saved through Christ. And it’s only by grace that God empowers us to serve him.

Funny how some people work hard at trying to be good enough to make their way into heaven. True hope for eternal life only comes when we realise that our good works gain us nothing. Only by God’s grace can we enter God’s rest. Only by repentance of sin and faith in Christ can we experience God’s grace. And grace is God’s doing!
1 Corinthians 15:10
But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
Funny how we think that by striving to be good, we can somehow attain a greater measure of God’s grace? But, and here’s the paradox, grace is effortless! Grace is God’s doing. It’s only by grace that we are saved through Christ. And it’s only by grace that God empowers us to serve him. As Jesus said to Apostle Paul, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness.” Paul responds by saying, “For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
God-tracking is resting in the effect of God’s grace.
