Grace

 
Some sharings this Sunday morning on one of my favorite subjects...

Grace...

"This day boldness is manifested in a simple grace: gratitude." ~ Mary Anne Radmacher
...
"Grace defies reason and logic." ~ Bono

"Grace isn't just a little prayer you say before receiving a meal. It's a way to live." ~ Jackie Windspear

"I'm becoming more and more myself with time. I guess that's what grace is.
The refinement of your soul through time." ~ Jewel

"Any artist should be grateful for a naive grace which puts him beyond the need to reason elaborately." ~ Saul Bellow

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

"Beauty without grace is the hook without the bait." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Each day offers us the gift of being a special occasion if we can simply learn that as well as giving, it is blessed to receive with grace and a grateful heart...Grace is available for each of us every day - our spiritual daily bread - but we've got to remember to ask for it with a grateful heart and not worry about whether there will be enough for tomorrow." ~ Sarah Ban Breathnach

"Grace is but glory begun, and glory is but grace perfected." ~ Jonathan Edwards

"Grace is everywhere as an active orientation of all created reality toward God." ~
Karl Rahner

"Grace is the absence of everything that indicates pain or difficulty, hesitation or incongruity." ~ William Hazlitt

"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

"To experience the miracles of everyday grace is not just a privilege for the enlightened few. It's your birthright!" ~ Marianne Williamson

And For me,

Grace is the supreme Power of all Powers and Highest Law of the Universe, which transcends all others...

Founded upon Love,
We reach the state of Grace when we realize that we are all Perfect Creations of the Divine and no harm can befall us or come from us...
We reach the state of Grace...
When we open ourselves up to the unlimited possibilities of a Benevolent Universe...
We reach the state of Grace...
Simply because we are Loved by the Mighty Heart of the Great Divine Creator

There are no lessons that need to be played out...
No dues or debts to be payed...
No Karma to be experienced...
No place of Supreme Enlightenment to be reached...
No conditions of worthiness to be met...

All other Laws are suspended and mute in its Presence...

Once you have accepted the state of Grace as your birthright from a Perfect Creator...
You BECOME the Perfect Expression of Love, Joy, Beauty, Peace, Wholeness, Abundance and Compassion...
And there is little need of anything else.

After my harrowing and yes, most blessed physical ordeal last week...
I am in such a state of Divine Gratitude for the gift of the Perfect Grace of God...
And so Blessed to be fully embracing this beautiful Sunday...
This beautiful Life...
Upon my Beloved Mother Gaia...
And sharing these thoughts with you...

I invite you to please add your own comments and musings on what Grace is for you...

Many Blessings my Friends...
And May the Face of Grace shine down upon you in Miraculous ways, this precious day!
