Graceland The Graceland Mansion in Memphis, Tennessee, is one of the most visited homes in the US. It was built in the 1930s and named after the original owner’s GREAT aunt, Grace. It later became famous as the home of Elvis Presley. I LOVE THE name Graceland because it describes the amazing territory into which God placed me when He forgave me of my sin and made me His own. He took me OUT OF THE DARKNESS and brought me into His own “graceland.” The apostle Paul says that “the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many” (Rom. 5:15). I’ll be forever THANKFUL that the “many” includes me and that God’s love has transferred me into the territory of His marvelous, infinite, matchless grace! Think of the blessing of being in God’s graceland. It is a realm where He has GIVEN us entrance into His presence and where that same grace continues to overflow into our lives on a daily basis. Paul tells us that even in times of despair God showers us with sufficient grace to see us through (see 2 Cor. 12:9). No matter what life may bring, nothing CAN remove us from the realm of God’s grace. Lord, for THE BLESSINGS of Your grace I am forever grateful! Teach me to accept Your grace and to live in its power. HELP ME to SHARE Your story with others. Remember where you live and rejoice in His grace.
