Grace gives us rain with fruitful seasons. Every provision we have is by God's grace. God saves us from the law of sin and death by grace through faith in Christ. God works in and through us to do His will by grace. You are sustained through the hard times by God's grace. All of life is by God's grace.
Every believer's testimony echoes the words of the apostle Paul, "But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me" (First Corinthians 15:10). That's life by God's grace.
Grace is God's unmerited favor. There is no way you can merit nor earn the favor of God. It comes to you only as a gift to be freely received. Faith in Jesus Christ receives the grace of God. Don't fall for the idea that you can somehow be good enough to merit God's favor. Grace is not for good people. Grace is for sinners, and that includes all of us.
The only way that we can have a personal relationship with God is by grace through faith. He must reveal himself to us and in us. That has been appropriately called amazing grace. It's not what we do for God. It's what God has done for us in Christ. All you are, or ever hope to be, is by God's grace.
