Something was bought back at a price. And the price was not your promise to do better. It was His blood. You were redeemed through what He spent, not through what you swore to repay.","Look at the measure: according to the riches of His grace. Your forgiveness is not rationed by how sorry you feel or how clean your week was. It is poured out according to His riches, which never run low. There is no shortage at that bank.","This is why you can stop trying to earn back what is already paid for. The transaction closed at the cross. You are not working off a debt. You are walking around already redeemed, forgiven according to riches you could never exhaust."],"carry":"Your forgiveness is measured by His wealth, not your worthiness. Stop repaying what was already bought.","go_deeper":{"label":"Browse the Grace Answers articles","url":"https://www.graceanswers.com/articles"},"share_image_url":null,"permalink":"https://todays-grace.bball.workers.dev?mode=page&date=2026-07-09"}
