God doesn't want to help you.

3. Grace, also is sovereign.

Not having debts to pay, or fulfilled conditions on man's part to wait for, it can act toward whom, and how, it pleases.

It can, and does, often, place the worst deservers in the highest favors.

4. Grace cannot act where there is either desert or ability:

Grace does not help -- it is absolute, it does all.

Wow...how often have I prayed "God help me do ______". God does not want to help! He doesn't want partial credit; He wants all the glory and all the credit. He doesn't want a marquee that reads; "Bryan, God, and Associates", but simply God and God alone. My problem is that I am like the kid who won't give dad his broken toy because "I can help dad! Let me do it!" but grace is absolute.
