Grace, the definition is: "Unmerited, divine assistance given to humans for their...sanctification"
Everyday in countless ways, God gives us some form of grace. Today, in the bustiling Gerald R. Ford airport, we recieved grace from God in the form of two extra bags. Thank you Lord!!
Yet, another definition for grace is: "a charming or attractive trait or characteristic". How often do we give grace to recieve something in return? Isn't the point of grace that it is unmerited and does not require so-called "payback"?
As humans, we often disregard one definition and find one we like. These two definitions are just two of ten definitions in the merriam-webster dictionary. How often do we as humans pick and choose the definition of our actions?
I pray that all who read this will recognize grace as "unmerited divine assistance given to humans for their...sanctification" and not "a charming or attractive trait or characteristic". Always. Because that is NOT what grace is about!
