grace is one of those funny things we all grow up hearing about, and believing. in one sense, it's the most tangible expression of our relationship to God. How could we live with hope if it were not for grace?
grace is a paradox. it is something ordinary and something miraculous. something universal and particular. perhaps it was learning to see grace in the ordinary that made me finally realize that I did in fact know what it was all along.
if every human is an immortal (thank you clive staples) then maybe all of our interactions are filled with grace... maybe our relationships are signs of this grace. maybe friendship, established on the idea of an attitude that models the love set by our Lord is one of the finest manifestations of grace in the fallen world.
so this past semester i am very glad I took the time to notice this...
