Family church - know Gods love
if you are new around here you may notice that we love the bible around here and think that its words can help bring life.
These specific words we just read are about God’s love for us and I want this for everybody who comes through these doors to experience and know the incredible and awesome power of God’s love.
Pastor Bob drives up to the Happy Rest Nursing home to visit Matilda, an elderly member of his church in the latter years of her life.
"Hi Matilda, good to see you, can I sit with you for awhile?"
As they begin chatting, the pastor notices a bowl full of peanuts on the nearby nightstand.
As Matilda continues to share a story he's already heard a few times before, he reaches for the bowl of peanuts and takes one.
As the conversation continues, he also continues to eat more and more peanuts.
Near the end of their time together he realizes he has eaten every single peanut in the bowl.
"Matilda, I must apologize.
It seems that I have eaten every one of your peanuts."
"Oh that's okay Pastor Bob."
"They would have just sat there anyway."
"Without my teeth anymore, all I can do is lick and suck the chocolate off of them and put the peanuts back in the bowl."
no point

Favor, unmerited favor, divine favor
something that starts inside of who god is, and is extended towards us as the receiver of that favor
grace is not forgiveness or mercy but by his grace we receive those things
someones in trouble and they ask for grace - mean forgiveness
grace \ˈgrās\ noun

1 a: unmerited divine assistance given humans for their regeneration or sanctification
skip down
2 grace is not only a concept of unmerited favor, divine favor but grace is also a person.
grace can only come from a personhood.
If a bear is after me and hes about to eat me and he ends up not eating me, that bear hasnt shown me grace, he’s an animal and doesnt have the ability to show me favor.
hes not a person.
grace comes from personhood
christian bear story -
An atheist was taking a walk through the woods, admiring all that the evolution had created.
"What majestic trees!
What powerful rivers!
What beautiful animals!", he said to himself.
As he was walking alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him.
He turned to look.
He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him.
He ran as fast as he could up the path.
He looked over his shoulder and saw that the bear was closing.
He ran even faster, so scared that tears were coming to his eyes.
He looked over his shoulder again, and the bear was even closer.
His heart was pumping frantically and he tried to run even faster.
He tripped and fell on the ground.
He rolled over to pick himself up but saw the bear right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw and raising his right paw to strike him.
At that instant the Atheist cried out "Oh my God!...."
Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
Even the river stopped moving.
As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky, "You deny my existence for all of these years; teach others I don't exist; and even credit creation to a cosmic accident.
Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament?
Am I to count you as a believer?"
The atheist looked directly into the light "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask You to treat me as Christian now, but perhaps could you make the bear a Christian?"
"Very well," said the voice.
The light went out.
The river ran again.
And the sounds of the forest resumed.
And then the bear dropped his right paw ..... brought both paws together...bowed his head and spoke:
"Lord, for this food which I am about to receive, I am truly thankful...AMEN!"
