" I do not understand the mystery of grace-----only that it meets us where we are, but does not leave us where it found us. "
Anne Lamott, author of Plan B Further Thoughts on Faith.
I feel that the harshest critic of ourselves is us. When we can recognize this, that this is so. It is then that God's grace can come on "down" and envelope us in it's unjudgmental warmth. When it is that time when we break those chains upon our wrists that we ourselves have locked on down. That we are able to reach up with freed hands to place that mantle of grace upon our shoulders. And with that comes the lightness of God's benevolence. And hopefully we can hear God's voice within and throughout the remainder of our days on Earth.
