The promise of grace is our introduction to salvation. But the longer we live it becomes increasingly hard to remember where we have come from. How do we respond to the revelation that if we live according to the flesh we declare war on our creator? How do we cultivate a personal and family culture that is continually aware of God’s grace? James offers five practical steps in our reconciliation with God: 1) submission, 2) resistance, 3) drawing near, 4) repentance, and 5) exaltation.
