How do we know we are standing in God's true grace?

The assurance of standing in God's true grace is deeply intertwined with the experience of our calling. According to 2 Peter 1:10, we ought to 'make our calling and election sure.' This means that our understanding of God's grace is solidified through a sincere desire for spiritual things, akin to 'newborn babes' desiring the milk of the Word. If we find ourselves hungry and thirsty for God's righteousness, it affirms our standing in the grace of God. Ultimately, it's through our desire for Christ and our experience of His grace in our lives that we can have confidence in our relationship with Him.
