Faith is as much the gift of God as is the Saviour upon whom that faith relies. Repentance of sin is as truly the work of grace as the making of an atonement by which sin is blotted out. Salvation, from first to last, is of grace alone.

Spurgeon, Charles H.. All Of Grace (p. 83). Fig. Kindle Edition. 

Colossians 1:1-2 Paul and Timothy send greetings.

Paul, Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Brother Timothy send greetings to the saints at Colossae and faithful fellow-christians in Christ - grace to you and peace from God our father.

Just people depend on the grace of God rather than on their own wisdom in keeping their resolutions. - Thomas A. Kempis
