#Grace

"Un-winged and naked, sorrow surrenders its crown to a throne called grace."

"Grace saved my life; it can revolutionize yours."

"God is writing His story on the pages of our lives."

"Everyone is flailing through this life without an owner's manual, with whatever modicum of grace and good humor we can manage."

"The reality of loving God is loving him like he's a Superhero who actually saved you from stuff rather than a Santa Claus who merely gave you some stuff."

"It's not the law of religion nor the principles of morality that define our highways and pathways to God; only by the Grace of God are we led and drawn, to God. It is His grace that conquers a multitude of flaws and in that grace, there is only favor. Favor is not achieved; favor is received."

"Personal revelation is better than public convictions."

"Despite what you think you know, sometimes your plans may be interrupted. Because you were designed for a purpose. You are on a mission to achieve greatness. No matter what obstacles lie in your path, you will reach your destination. Remember God's grace is sufficient."

"Believe God for something today. Prayer is the key to connecting with God and allowing Him to speak to your spirit. Open your heart and free your mind."

"Extraordinary afflictions are not always the punishment of extraordinary sins, but sometimes the trial of extraordinary graces."

"I wanted a library like this...[] A cave of words that I'd made myself."

"Life makes fools of all of us sooner or later. But keep your sense of humor and you'll at least be able to take your humiliations with some measure of grace. In the end, you know, its our own expectations that crush us."

"As in nature, as in art, so in grace; it is rough treatment that gives souls, as well as stones, their luster."

"Sometimes, the most graceful way to handle something is to be decidedly ungraceful."

"I have found, in short, from reading my own writing, that my subject in fiction is the action of grace in territory largely held by the devil.I have also found that what I write is read by an audience which puts little stock either in grace or the devil. You discover your audience at the same time and in the same way that you discover your subject, but it is an added blow."

"Grace will follow us even when we are going the wrong way"

"I'll look to the crossAs my failure is lostIn the light ofYour glorious grace"

"That is the saving grace of humor, if you fail no one is laughing at you."

"...stooping very low, He engraves with careHis Name, indelible, upon our dust;And from the ashes of our self-despair,Kindles a flame of hope and humble trust.He seeks no second site on which to build,But on the old foundation, stone by stone,Cementing sad experience with grace,Fashions a stronger temple of His own."

"God's mercy and grace give me hope - for myself, and for our world."
