The Reality...

of Salvation and Grace. It seems that we so often have a hard time truly understanding the gift of Grace and what it really means. Doesn't it seem too easy sometimes or even most times? Were we as Christians brought up living in the "house of fear" instead of the "house of love" as Brennan Manning describes in his book, The Ragamuffin Gospel. The gift of Salvation and Grace is just that a gift! We don't need to earn it or continue to try to earn it. This has really hit home this week as I think about the sermon I heard regarding the Day of Atonement and contemplate what this Holy Week truly is about....I truly want to try to spend more time in the Room of Grace rather than the Room of Good Intentions.
