Grace

Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. #Bible

Grace is the merciful kindness by which God exerts his holy influence upon souls, to turn them to Christ (Strong's).
Not only is Grace God's Merciful Kindness towards us, but It is an influence by God to influence us by its attractiveness, especially when expressed by God.
Grace is God's hand of fellowship extended to the world expressing His Love for all humanity. In Faith God extends His Grace to all humanity in the desire that all will come to Him, with no one refused no matter how bad their sin.
We understand that this wonderful Grace offered would be impossible to earn, even with a lifetime of effort, especially when we can't stop the power of sin in our own lives, on our own. If it were possible we would have heard about it.
The only One I have heard who accomplished this humongous feet is Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, and He turned around and took the sin of all humanity upon Himself and suffered our punishment all the way to death, so God the Father can extend Grace to us in the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, where He left the power of sin. All who will believe in Jesus now can enjoy this wonderful Grace of God, and so much more. Let your adventure begin, believe in Jesus the Christ and be saved from hell, which is your only other option.
