How is grace different when it comes from God as opposed to coming from us? Is grace only a one way street, are we able to actually give grace back to God? How does grace implicate authority?
I don't think God is looking for grace from us, but rather that we extend grace to one another. If God's gift is indeed a gift, then repayment is inappropriate, and indeed impossible.
How would we show unmerited favor to God anyway? God has infinite merit - any favor we show Him would be deserved, which is the opposite of grace.
