grace
is anyone else out there complete baffled by the mere idea of grace?
the idea that someone could extend love & forgiveness to someone who, in your mind, deserves anything but that?
is there any hope to think that i will ever be able to do the same to those in my life who continually hurt and disappoint me?
i guess that's what makes it grace. the fact that i could never do it in my own power. the fact that it has to come from somewhere/Someone else.
i can try, but i still don't get it. i guess i can only hope to give it!

well said, beka dean! potent, poetic, and TRUE! keep wrestling with the mystery. hopefully, it will never make any sense at all.
