Grace doesn’t just save us; it grounds us and then sends us out. Paul says we are saved by grace through faith, not by our own effort, so our identity is secure before we do anything. But grace doesn’t leave us standing still. We are God’s handiwork, created in Christ for good works He has already planned.

Abiding in Christ gives us inner security so we can live outwardly with freedom and purpose. When we stay in Him, obedience isn’t a performance—it becomes a natural response. Mission isn’t pressure; it’s joining in what God is already doing.

Those who abide in Christ live on mission with His heart and power.

Lord, help me remain in Christ today so that my life naturally moves outward in love and good works prepared by You.
