Can You Earn God’s Grace?

To earn is to gain something through your efforts,

But no amount of effort or work

Can ensure you gain true Christ consciousness

Work is necessary to show you want it,

And you must do your part to get it.

If you try to keep the law on your own

To cultivate Christ consciousness on your own,

You are trying to earn it,

But you cannot earn it on your own

It is grace,

It is a gift from God,

And God gives grace to the humble,

Not the proud

To those who humble themselves before God. 

Amen
