This word has come up a lot lately. And, knowing I am unworthy of such, sometimes it is hard for me to fathom that He bestows His grace on me anyway.So, today I leave you with this thought:Learning to live as one undeserving of Grace, but having it poured out anyway, it's an amazing gift...God … Continue reading Grace
