The Apostle Paul begins his letters with a greeting of Grace and Peace AND he ends most of them with the same greeting!
Grace and Peace... two realities that we and our world needs.
All of us are constantly in need of God's grace in our lives. Unmerited love - grace! No matter what we have done or where we have been... loved, accepted, valued by God - grace! No matter what our thoughts or actions... grace! God's grace is a gift to each of us and it is good to be reminded of that gift in our lives!
Our World is in need of God's peace... and as we experience God's grace in our lives, the potential for God's peace becomes a deeper reality! The two go hand in hand.... Grace and Peace! As recipients of God's grace, we can be agents of God's peace. Valuing others regardless of their perspective or actions.... peace! Seeking the well being of others - even those who desire to harm us or dislike us.... peace! God's peace is a gift to each of us and our world... and it is good to be reminded of that gift in our lives too!
Grace and Peace! Grace and Peace to you! Grace and Peace to our world!
