Grace is a beautiful word, both in its sound and in its meanings. It can describe fluidity and charm--She skated gracefully across the ice--as well as kindness and pardon--He was saved by the governor's act of grace. It can also describe ummerited mercy and forgiveness, which I think is its most powerful definition, especially when I think of the word in terms of Easter. It's not always easy to extend grace to others, especially when I feel they don't deserve it, but it's one of the most important concepts I can teach my children.
I hope you all have a wonderful Easter!
well said dana---God's grace teaches us this doesn't it--with what mercy we show, we will be shown
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. :)
DeleteGod's grace is such a wonderful thing, and as you mentioned, especially considering it around the time of Easter, and thinking of the Cross, it becomes clear how powerful God's love is for us.
