Can you remember the time in your life when you began to realize God’s grace for the first time? Or perhaps you already knew it, but out of nowhere the reality of God’s grace became blinding and all-encompassing?
I can.
Here’s how John Calvin recorded this experience in his own life:
God by a sudden conversion subdued and brought my mind to a teachable frame, which was more hardened in such matters than might have been expected from one at my early period of life. Having thus received some taste and knowledge of true godliness, I was immediately inflamed with so intense a desire to make progress therein, that although I did not altogether leave off other studies, yet I pursued them with less ardour.
The only explanation is that God did it.
