Grace finds us as a divine initiative from God, rather than something we earn or seek out.
According to the Bible, grace is not something we achieve through our efforts or righteousness but rather an outpouring of God's love towards us. Ephesians 1:6-7 tells us that we are accepted in the Beloved and that we have redemption through Christ's blood according to the riches of His grace. This signifies that God's grace is proactive; it seeks us out and encompasses us, as demonstrated by Noah’s experience in Genesis 6:8, where it is noted that Noah found grace because grace had already been set upon him by God’s initiative. Hence, grace’s true nature lies in its divine origin and purpose rather than human achievement.
