A pastor I knew had just cared for the funeral of a woman who had never given God the time of day until the week before her death. There, on her death bed, she repented of her sin and placed her faith in Christ. The pastor, hoping his people would rejoice over this child that was lost and had been found, mentioned this on the following Sunday in the morning worship service.
He was surprised when a woman spoke up with: “That’s not fair.”
It’s not fair.
It’s grace.
But if you have been working hard to coax God to accept you, it’s a little exasperating when you hear of someone who finds what you’ve been looking for comes by grace.
This podcast speaks of the nature of grace, looking at the parable of the workers.
