Key Questions for Deepening a Grace

Re-Entering the Experience (Slow the Grace Down)

Write exactly what happened.

What did you notice? What did you feel? What stood out or surprised you? What interior movements did you have?

Recognizing God’s Action (Name the Giver)

Link to Guide on “What God Is Like” (for those who need helps with steps 2 and 3)

What did you experience God being like toward you? What posture did God seem to have toward me? What do you think God was doing in that moment? 

What was God saying? What did it seem like God wanted you to notice or pay attention to in that moment?

• Ask: If this feeling had a face, what expression would it have?

Receiving the Grace (Revelation and Gift)

What did this reveal to you about God? What does this grace reveal about the kind of God He is?

• God’s memory? God’s attentiveness? God’s joy? God’s fatherhood toward you? God’s timing? God's personal love?

What did this reveal to you about yourself?

What discouraging belief or lie in me did this grace challenge?

What gift did God give you in that moment?

Noticing the Effects (Fruit and Aftermath)

What changed in you afterward? What desires came from that? What remained?

Abiding in the Grace (Staying Present to It)

Do you still have access to that grace now? If you return to it right now, what do you notice?

Responding to the Grace (Invitation and Direction)

What do you feel invited to do in response? What posture or response is God inviting?

• What attitude does God want me to carry forward?

  How is He inviting me to live differently?

  Focus on interior posture, not just external action.

The Core Grace (Distillation)

Now summarize the grace. Complete this sentence:

“God gave me the grace of insert answer here.”
