How deep the Father's love for us - as the younger son found when he returned home to find his Father, whom he had insulted, running towards him and embracing him. The deal the son had come up with died in his throat when brought face to face with the Father's amazing grace. So too for anyone who comes to God the Father in a spirit of conviction, confession and repentance - no matter how badly we have insulted him and sinned against him. You cannot make a deal with grace - you can only receive it, wonder at it and rejoice in it.
