Grace: God's Indescribable Gift

I love what Paul shares in 2 Corinthians 9 about God's grace. He's trying to describe grace but in the end he throws up his hands and submits to his inability to describe it.

14And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you. 15Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!

One day we'll be able to fully grasp God's grace and we'll be able to see it for what it is. Until then, we like Paul, can participate and to a certain extent be an extension of His grace to others as Paul is attempting to describe in this passage, but in the end we simply have to accept and receive God's gift of grace as just that - an indescribable gift.

God, WOW us with your gift of grace this week.
