Standing In Grace

We should stand in grace and not fall from it.  What does it mean to fall from grace? Grace, being a gift from God since the beginning of time - I think it implies our accepting of the gift. When Adam and Eve ate from the tree, they were rejecting the words of God that told them not to.  They were rejecting all the Garden of Eden had to offer them in alternatives.  They were rejecting the fellowship with God that they experienced in the cool of the day.  They rejected all the love and beauty God had placed them in and allowed them to enjoy freely.  To fall from grace means to reject God's gifts and to seek after something else, to find your comfort in something else. So when the Bible says we should stand in grace that means stand in the promises.  Stand in the hope.  Stand in the will.  Stand in the Spirit of God.  He loves you and He's on your side.  He wants you to be on His.
