How do you reflect the grace of God?

Answer 1

GRACE= God's Riches at Christ's Expense.

The only way I can reflect the grace of God is to show others the character of God...given to me by His grace!
...Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

Answer 2

The moon reflects the light of the sun, not because it is "trying" to but because its surface is such that light bounces off of it. So we reflect the grace of God not so much by doing something as by being in some way. I think our equivalent of reflection is selflessness. If God's power strikes me and I am selfish, I grasp his power for myself and try to use it for my own advantage or to make myself look interesting and attractive. These acts of selfishness are like particles of black dust on the surface of the moon that absorb rather than reflect the light of the sun. If I were, on the other hand, completely selfless the light of God would strike me and bounce back into the lives of others with an intensity that was blinding. It would not be my light, my efforts, or my vanity that people would see; it would rather be the holiness, mercy, and forgiveness of Christ himself. Pax et caritas.

Answer 3

It is reflects in ME first and foremost...purely by the fact that Im alive today. I just turned 36 and its only by His Grace and mercy that I am. I have done so much in my life that should have killed me (drinking, sex, wrong choices, bad relationships)..and yet He extended grace to forgive me for all the times when I denied Him, ignored Him and mocked Him. When you know just how horrible a person you were...how defiled and spiritually sick....you realize you are a walking billboard...for His Grace.

Answer 4

All who have chosen God's service are to rest in His care. Christ pointed to the birds flying in the heavens, to the flowers of the field, and bade His hearers consider the objects of God's creation. 'Are ye not of much more value than they?' He said. Matt.6:26.

The measure of divine attention bestowed on any object is proportionate to its rank in the scale of being. The little brown sparrow is watched over by Providence.The flowers of the field, the grass that carpets the earth, share the notice and care of our heavenly Father. The great Master Artist has taken thought for the lilies, making them so beautiful that they outshine the glory of Solomon. How much more does He care for man, who is the image and glory of God. He longs to see His children reveal a character after His similitude.

As the sunbeam imparts to the flowers their varied and delicate tints, so does God impart to the soul the beauty of His own character.

In the beginning darkness was on the face of the deep. God said, "Let there be light! And there was light!" Now He says, "Let the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ shine into the darkened void of your heart." 2 Corinthians 4:6. It is so if we believe, For "He speaks and it is done! He commands, and it stands fast." Psalm 33:9.

"You were once darkness but now you are light in the Lord." Ephesians 5:8.

And the life which it is thus received is in like manner sustained, by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God shall man live! Matt.4:4.

Answer 5

We as Christians are called to be imitators of God. I think that what God wants is for us to live lives according to the Bible. We are to love those who persecute us and to pray for them. When we are faced with adversity we are to call upon the name of the Lord. The only way to truly reflect the grace of God is to read His word daily and to live it!

Answer 6

With a big mirror held over your head. Just go out on a sunny day with a great big mirror and do a little dance reflecting it all over the city.

Answer 7

You have got get get as much of your ego out of the way so as to reflect his light clearly. Your ego acts like clouds in the sky. The sun is always there shinning brightly we just block it with the clouds in our mind. We always use our (ego's version) history to judge everything in the present so that there is no present. Only the ego's interpretation of it. God's glory is always there for any that will to see it. Once seen we have no choice but to reflect it.

Answer 8

By giving it to others. Grace means receiving something that is not deserved, like we received from God through Jesus. We are supposed to in turn forgive and extend grace to others, because we received something we didn't deserve too.

Answer 9

By giving grace to others when they fail.

Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4:8)

Answer 10

The grace of God is in forgiving and showing mercy. It is showing and giving love, wisdom and power to others, even sacrificially. A rather simple, but quick definition.
