WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE GRACE

what is grace

Grace is one of those BIG words.

Really big words.

The kind that are hard to define.

Like DIGNITY. And INTEGRITY. And FREEDOM.

Words like these require our own interpretation or we can go through life never really understanding what they mean. And if we don’t understand what they mean, we cannot be inspired or fueled by them. Grace is definitely a fuel.

Defining Grace

what does it mean to have graceGrace is the opposite of ego. The ego is what tries to make us believe we are separate from others. Grace is the understanding that we are not separate at all; that each of us is inextricably tied to one another.

Having Grace means we are willing to consider, thoughtfully and kindly, another person’s point of view, no matter how different it may be from my own, and not fault that person for it. Ever. This is a sign of compassion, tolerance. I want to be compassionate and tolerant.

When I have Grace I don’t use anger against those who are quick to judge, denigrate, hate, and shame. That’s a tough one, at times, I’ll admit. Still, when it comes down to Grace vs. Anger, guess which one wins? All. The. Time.

When I have Grace I don’t use anger against myself.

Grace reminds me to be kind.

Grace reminds me of how I want to be treated.

Grace reminds me that I am not the only one who struggles. We all fall down.

Grace reminds me to get back up.

Every. Single. Time.
