God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.-Ephesians 2:8-9, NLT

What is "Grace"? It is God being good to us, in spite of us. 

It is the overcoming, unfailing, sacrificial Love of a parent for the child, no matter what. 

Every good thing in your life is from the Grace of God--those blessings you did and didn't work for (For His Grace gives us the power to get wealth; the breath and strength and energy to function and work!), and didn't even plan for; that you and I could not ever earn or be good enough to deserve! 

Hallelujah!

For God saved us and called us to live a holy life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that was his plan from before the beginning of time—to show us his grace through Christ Jesus.--2 Timothy 1:9, NLT

The LORD has taught me, since a few years ago, to ask Him to "put His Grace all over this," especially if it's a new venture, or something that may be a challenging situation (even getting together with family members, where the conversation may be awkward, if they don't believe like you do, or have anything really in common with you!). Things always flow smoother when I pray this, and do my part--ask Him to fill me with Himself, keep my mind on Him, and yield to His Spirit. 

All of that--from Him teaching and helping us to receive His filling and keep our minds on Him, to asking Him to put His Grace all over situations, then doing it for us, making things much better than they could be!--is His Grace!

Having a heart of thanksgiving to the LORD for His Grace is an effective way to increase your awareness of it, for God's Grace is His goodness. 

He commands us to be thankful, for many reasons, and when we are, we are doing what He says in 1 Thessalonians 5:18 to "Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus."

Being thankful for the Grace of God is one way to set our mind on things above, which can only make us feel better and focus on God's goodness:

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.--Philippians 4:8, KJV

In times of warfare, when the enemy is slamming your mind and it seems like all is negative, you can cry out to the Holy Spirit Who is God, to help you remember and speak out the good things of God, which is His Grace. 

God has shown all of us so much Grace! Praise His holy Name, forever! He is the good, good Father!

He will help you and me, and that itself is more of His matchless Grace! 

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.--Romans 8:15, KJV
