Grace when you need it . . .Every day!

What is it?
Merriam_Webster – Grace
a: unmerited divine assistance given to humans for their regeneration or sanctification
b: approval, favor
c: disposition to or an act or instance of kindness, courtesy, or clemency

From GotQuestions.org (https://www.gotquestions.org/mercy-grace.html)
“Mercy and grace are closely related. While the terms have similar meanings, grace and mercy are not exactly the same. Mercy has to do with kindness and compassion; it is often spoken of in the context of God’s not punishing us as our sins deserve. Grace includes kindness and compassion, but also carries the idea of bestowing a gift or favor. It may help to view mercy as a subset of grace. In Scripture, mercy is often equated with a deliverance from judgment , and grace is always the extending of a blessing to the unworthy.”

God’s undeserved favor toward the unworthy.
