Today’s Faith: Chasing Grace, Trusting Christ

Today’s Faith requires you to start chasing grace with all the passion of a runner going after the prize. Today we travel to Romans 5:20.

Grace is not just a theological concept you file away in your mind it’s the fuel God gives you to run this Christian race. Chasing grace means you are intentionally pursuing the presence of God, not to earn His love, but to experience the full weight of His favor in your life. Grace doesn’t meet you halfway; it meets you all the way. It takes you from the pit of your failures to the heights of His promises.

Chasing Grace: First Steps

When you start chasing grace, you stop letting your past write the last chapter of your story. You begin to live like someone who knows they’ve been forgiven, redeemed, and restored. This is not about tiptoeing toward God hoping He won’t notice your mistakes. It’s about running boldly into His arms because you know His grace has already covered it all.

Chasing grace means you recognize that the mercy of God is not just a get-out-of-jail-free card. It’s a daily empowerment to live in the identity He has given you. It gives you courage when fear whispers that you’re not enough. It pushes you forward when the weight of your mistakes tries to drag you back. Grace is the difference between trying to do life on your own strength and living in the overflow of God’s strength.

Learning to Live in Grace Daily

Let’s be real: Some of us talk about grace, but we live like we’re still on probation with God. We keep checking over our shoulders, wondering if He’s going to pull back His love the next time we mess up. But chasing grace is about walking in the confidence that what Jesus did on the cross was enough. You can’t add to it, and you can’t subtract from it. His sacrifice was complete.

Grace doesn’t just rescue you, it transforms you. It teaches you how to let go of grudges, how to speak life into others, and how to face tomorrow without fear. And here’s the powerful truth: the more your struggles try to multiply, the more God’s grace shows up to multiply even greater. Romans 5:20 tells us, “Where sin increased, grace increased all the more.” That means there is no sin so deep that His grace can’t go deeper still.

This is why chasing grace is not a one-time decision. It’s a lifestyle. Every morning you wake up, you decide again to run after God’s presence. You decide to trust His forgiveness over your feelings. You decide to believe His Word more than you believe the accusations of the enemy.

And here’s the beauty of it is this: When you chase grace, you find that grace has been chasing you all along. The God who called you is the God who covers you. The God who saved you is the God who sustains you. And the God who redeemed you will one day glorify you.

So, don’t just talk about grace. Don’t just study it. Chase it. Pursue the One who gives it freely. Pray like it’s your lifeline. Read God’s Word like it’s the map to your destiny. And walk like someone who knows they’ve already won the victory in Christ.
