The Mystery Of Grace

The Mystery Of Grace

I have to admit, I don’t fully understand the mystery of grace either.

An outcome is not dependent on actions?

It’s the opposite of both the law and how most of us act.

The best teacher of grace is having children, if you want to know the truth.

I don’t know, maybe it’s just me.

But it’s hard to think of a reason I would not be giving of grace to my children.

I do not at all understand the mystery of grace—only that it meets us where we are but does not leave us where it found us.

-Anne Lamott, Traveling Mercies
