Stabbed By Grace

Sometimes I am stabbed by a notion of grace that at once utterly undermines the fallen instincts of all secular ideologies and all religious striving and yet completely upholds genuine human integrity and completely defines and fulfills our deepest desire for freedom and love. When I am confronted by this grace I am astonished by how completely wrongheaded and hearted I can be, and yet so glad to acknowledge my stupidity for the fullness of joy that this grace offers.

    And the thing is, as profound as this notion of grace may seem to be, I sense that I am only catching a fleeting glimpse of a minute percentage of the goodness that God freely offers.
