It's a Name for a Girl

Grace, she takes the blame
She covers the shame, removes the stain
It could be her name

Grace, it's a name for a girl
It's also a thought that changed the world
And when she walks on the street you can hear the strings
Grace finds goodness in everything...

...She's got the time to talk
She travels outside of karma
When she goes to work
You can hear her strings
Grace finds beauty in everything...

...What once was hurt; What once was friction; What left a mark
No longer stings; Because grace makes beauty out of ugly things
-U2


I have been amazed at grace lately. Especially the grace that I have been offered. I screw up so much and any normal human being would ditch me, but it hasn't happened. God just keeps offering me more and more grace. I keep falling into the same sin traps over and over and still more grace.

I hope that I can learn to treat others with more grace. Even if it is just a microscopic portion of the grace that I receive.
