Grace

God is painting his grace on the canvas of human souls. One day we will stand with him in Glory and see that canvas completed, and we won’t be able to do anything but worship. What is our part in all of this? We are God’s brushes. He wants to soak us on the palette of his grace and paint more of his goodness on yet another soul. The question is, “Are we soft brushes in his hands?” A hard, dried out brush doesn’t pick up the paint well and mars the surface it was meant to beautify.
