What is Grace?

​Phillip Yancey was once Asked:

QUESTION: Can you define grace?

ANSWER: I don’t even try. Jesus talked a lot about grace, but mainly through stories. I remember once getting stuck in Los Angeles traffic and arriving 58 minutes late at the Hertz rental desk.  I walked up in kind of a bad mood, put the keys down and said, “How much do I owe?”  The woman says, “Nothing.  You’re all clear.”  I said I was late and she smiled, “Yes, but there’s a one-hour grace period.”  So I asked, “Oh really, what is grace?”  And she said, “I don’t know.  [They must not cover that in Hertz training classes.]  I guess what it means is that even though you’re supposed to pay, you don’t have to.”  That’s a good start to a definition.

Let me ask you: Why do people apprteciate and understand the Grace of politicians, the grace of their husbands and wives, the grace of their children or parents, the grace of their Bosses, and the grace of robbers but fail to understand the ULTIMATE GRACE THAT RESULTS INTO ETERNAL LIFE OF GOD?

Why are we offended by the Grace of God…and enticed by the works of the Law?
