Holiness by Grace

I just started reading Bryan Chapell's 'Holiness by Grace', and it has been a tremendous blessing. I am thankful for this book as, even in the few pages I've read, it has given me a fresh perspective on how our union with Christ is the basis for not only our justification, but also our sanctification. Here was a particularly encouraging quote.

"Grace overwhelms us with God's love, and as a result our heart resonates with the desires of God. His purposes become our own. Our soul delights in his service as love for him and thanksgiving for his mercy make us long to honor him. True grace produces joy and promotes godliness."
