“Whatever your appointed tasks may be this day, go forth rejoicing, knowing that the Grace of God is upon you!  Before you set your hand to any task, before you take any action, use a few moments to remind yourself of this truth and affirm quietly, in faith, ‘I go forward joyously, for the Grace of God is upon me.’  You will find your accomplishment of your tasks easier than you had thought possible, your efforts abundantly fruitful and rewarding.

The same grace that was upon Jesus, “is given freely to every growing, unfolding child throughout eternity.  God is as eager to pour out love upon you and me as upon Jesus the Christ,” for we are God’s creations, images of God, worthy of God’s “tenderest benediction.

“Because we are all children of God, we are free to recognize and accept the grace, the love, of God in the same full measure as Jesus did.  Because you are a child of God, you are meant to assume the same attitude, manner, and bearing that Jesus the Christ assumed in his earthly ministry.  You are meant to act in the same manner as he, and you can because the Grace of God is upon you!  You are meant to conduct yourself with the same dignity, having the same spiritual assurance you know he had, and you can because the Grace of God is upon you!

” . . . Declare in faith: ‘God loves me.  God’s Grace is upon me, and only good can come.’”
