But by the grace of God I am what I am. And His grace towards me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God who is with me. 1 Corinthians 15:10

Apart from You Lord, I can do nothing. And without Your Hand on me touching me with Your grace, I have nothing in me good to offer. Every good thing I do is only by Your grace. This is why grace is called the surpassing grace of God in you. 2 Corinthians 9:14
My grace is sufficient for you, for my power has been made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses knowing that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Matthew 6:21
When I have You Jesus, I have everything I’ll ever need, in this life and in the glorious one to come. Your grace is sufficient. Your grace has saved me. What more could I ever want when I have You? All glory belongs to You, my Lord and Savior.
In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
Love, Jenna
