Luke 1:30
And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
Grace – And the grace of God:
Luke 2:40
And the child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom. And the favor of God was upon him.
Credit – What credit is that:
Luke 6:32
“If you love those who love you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.
Thank – Would he thank:
Luke 17:9
Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded?
Gift – Send…your gift:
1 Corinthians 16:3
And when I arrive, I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem.
Benefit – You might benefit:
2 Corinthians 1:15
Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a second experience of grace.

For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God.
