Is God's Grace Sufficient?

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Call me naïve, but I think war is unrealistic.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

We don’t want it to end, this life of toil and trouble, pain and loss.
The contradiction would be ludicrous if that were the whole picture.
But life is far more than suffering.
What we want to continue are love, beauty, laughter, music, inspiration and joy.
And they do – in you.
We give thanks for the wonderful gift of being alive.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Where’s Waldo?”

[Maybe it was the name of a lost sheep? Not!]

D. Blog: God’s Grace Suffices?

I have heard the affirmation about God’s grace all my life.

On the one hand, I cannot argue with its truth. God’s grace carries us through our failings, our sins and our struggles.

On another hand, I think the affirmation makes a whimpering understatement. God’s grace does much more than suffice. It bathes us in the extravagance of divine love. God’s grace floods and fills every cell of our beings, every nanosecond of our lives, every neuron of our brains, every molecule we breathe, every charge of emotion, every whisper in our spirit, every hint of the soul we are.

“Suffice” does not suffice to describe the infinite grace of Divinity.
