It is the appeal of this apostle. Take care of those with need.
Maclaren writes:
Our very life as a Christian is an outflow from the Fountain of Life, the giving God.
"All Grace . . . All Sufficiency . . . All Things . . . Every Good Work.
"The writer emphatically accumulates words that express universality."
It is all grace---and it is Abounding Grace."
The stooping and pardoning Grace of God.
"And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work." 2 Cor 9:8.
COME BOLDLY: Timeless Prayers
Dear Father, You bent Your Ear to our lives this day. You stooped down and rescued us, once again. It is truly All Grace. Abounding Grace. And we need More of You.
