2 Thessalonians 1:2
Grace to you... from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Greetings Bible Enthusiast!
Webster defines grace as the unmerited love and favor of God toward man and divine influence acting in man to make him pure and morally strong. Paul tells us in 2 Thessalonians 1:2 that this is ours from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ! He is greeting the Thessalonians with this thought. Next time you meet a friend or loved one, rather than say "Hi!" perhaps greet them with 'grace' (in your heart, if not out loud)!
God Bless You!
