There are moments in life that define us. In this natural realm, they may appear as mere random moments, opportunities, or forks in the road – if we even consider them at all. But in the design of God, these defining moments of grace make us who we are (or who we are not). In this final episode in the series on Grace – The Energy of God, JB Shreve looks at the parable of the sower and the life of Esau to explore the difference in perspectives regarding these defining moments of grace.
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees, and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed. Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled; that no one is sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal. For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no chance to repent, though he sought it with tears. Hebrews 12:12-17 (ESV)
