Commentary by Pastor Michael White:

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast” (Eph 2:8-9). Salvation is by grace, through faith. Abraham was counted as righteous because he believed. We are counted righteous when we place our faith in Jesus Christ! Salvation is a free gift; it can never be earned or purchased. There is nothing you can ever do to make God love you more than He already does! He loves you infinitely. His love is not for you to earn or maintain; but simply to enjoy.

Prayer:

Father, help me to rest in the finished work of the Cross. I know You love me infinitely because You gave up Your Only Son for me. Thank You!
