Grace and Confidence

Tagged everything...why because the grace of God covers everything...I was challenged today to consider the grace of God and also to consider how to encourage others to rediscover that grace...or to discover it for the first time...

"Grace is something you can never get but only be given. There's no way to earn or deserve it or bring it about any more than you can deserve the taste of raspberries and cream, or earn good looks, or bring about your own birth.- Fredrich Bruchner- Wishful Thinking"

We cannot pin down or explain grace we can only recieve it.. .

Resurrection faith

I believe in the Resurrection of Christ as an invitation to live with holy zeal, not as an escape from death.

I believe in the Resurrection of Christ as an invitation to embrace the mystery of life, not as an escape from the need to wrestle with faith.

I believe in the Resurrection of Christ as an invitation to live the incarnational life-to allow God to live in and through us-not as a rejection of the earthly body.

I believe in the Resurrection of Christ as a symbol of God's perpetual creativity, as a proclamation of the mystery at the centre of our existence.

Most of all I believe in the Resurrection of Christ as the infusion of divine energy that always brings forth a new beginning.

Resurrection says that there are always new opportunities, always second chances.--Dave Tomlinson-Running Into God.
