“This is the amazing story of God’s grace. God saves us by His grace and transforms us more and more into the likeness of His Son by His grace. In all our trials and afflictions, He sustains and strengthens us by His grace. He calls us by grace to perform our own unique function within the Body of Christ. Then, again by grace, He gives to each of us the spiritual gifts necessary to fulfill our calling. As we serve Him, He makes that service acceptable to Himself by grace, and then rewards us a hundredfold by grace.” GivingStoriesBodySpiritualChristGraceSonCallingUniqueFunctionRewardsTrialsAcceptableAfflictionGod's GraceBody Of ChristSpiritual Gifts Author:Jerry Bridges
