You may think you’re something, but you’re a nobody. We’re a nobody. It’s only God that can make us a somebody. Little man frets down here and “struts across the stage of life,” as Shakespeare put it. And he huffs and puffs like the old wolf around the little pig’s house. Huffing and puffing, that’s man today. And where is he going and what is he getting out of it? And some of them see the futility of it all and take their own lives. Well, where else are they going to turn, friend? The only place you can turn today is God, and what men are missing today. The fellowship. The salvation. His goodness. His grace. All these are yours if you but turn to Him.

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
