GRACE

The strangest thing happened today. I went for a walk and then decided to just stroll around a couple stores. I purchased a new perfume and a journal-datebook for next year. When I got home I noticed both items contained the word "GRACE". The perfume was called Pure Grace and the book was called Perennial Grace. How strange? I thought about the word Grace. I had always admired Grace Kelly, but what I really enjoy is the song Amazing Grace sung by II Divo. As in the beloved old hymn, the amazing kind of grace is God's gift of redemption, the grace which prompts us to repent, causing us to think again when we find ourselves in a bad way, and which prompts us to return, putting us back on a more godly path.
