Share Christ's grace this week, how?
How can we share the grace of Christ with others this week?

Overflowing Grace

“ “And the grace of our Lord overflowed to me, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.” ” (1 Timothy 1:14)

Paul speaks of grace as a flood, not a trickle. Because Scripture is true in every detail, we can trust that the same overflow is available to us now and meant to spill into the lives of others.


Why Grace Overflows

• It originates in Christ, not in us (John 1:16).

• It is unearned—“it is the gift of God, not by works” (Ephesians 2:8-9).

• It always travels with “faith and love” (1 Timothy 1:14), shaping both belief and behavior.


Sharing Grace in Words

• Speak thoughtfully: “Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt” (Colossians 4:6).

• Affirm God’s work in people instead of spotlighting flaws.

• Replace gossip with Scripture-soaked encouragement.

• Offer the gospel plainly: “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15).


Sharing Grace in Deeds

• Meet needs quickly—grace moves toward lack (2 Corinthians 9:8).

• Forgive faster than you are offended (Ephesians 4:32).

• Give quietly; let God get the credit (Matthew 6:3-4).

• Serve where no applause is expected, imitating the Servant-King (Mark 10:45).


Staying Fueled by Grace

• Draw near to the throne of grace daily (Hebrews 4:16).

• Meditate on salvation’s cost and Christ’s triumph (Titus 2:11-14).

• Memorize 1 Timothy 1:14; recite it whenever impatience rises.

• Worship—singing truth softens a hardened heart, keeping grace fresh.


This Week’s Grace Practices

• MON: Send a note highlighting God’s work in someone’s life.

• TUE: Carry a small gift card and ask the Lord to show whom to bless.

• WED: Share your testimony of Christ’s rescue with one person.

• THU: Choose silence instead of self-defense in one conversation.

• FRI: Volunteer an hour to help a neighbor or church ministry.

• SAT: Forgive an old offense, praying blessing over the other person.

• SUN: Invite a guest to worship and share a meal, pointing to the Grace-Giver.

Grace received is grace assigned. As Paul’s overflow became a river to Timothy, so ours can refresh every soul we meet this week.

In what ways can we grow in faith and love like Paul?
