My wolf was a cute guy and he was holding my hand. I could die happy.

You have FALLEN from Grace when you seek to be Justification by your own self effort (the Law). Gal 5:4 AMP

Breaking News: I am still standing!

It is unearned love--the love that goes before, that greets us on the way. It's the help you receive when you have no bright ideas left, when you are empty and desperate and have discovered that your best thinking and most charming charm have failed you. Grace is the light or electricity or juice or breeze that takes you from that isolated place and puts you with others who are as startled and embarrassed and eventually grateful as you are to be there.

But I know how much you care for me. I read it in the ribbon. Lorcan sighed. Did you really need to read the ribbon to know that I cared for you?, he said. Really, Grace, don't you know me at all?I thought I did, she said

I sometimes wonder if God calls us into the church because it represents not the people of God at their best but us at our worst.

And calls us to be a part of it not to reform it or save it or control it in any way, but to simply love it.

There but for the grace of God go I.

You must pay for everything in this world one way and another. There is nothing free except the Grace of God. You cannot earn that or deserve it.

This is a love story. I never knew there were so many kinds of love or that love could make people do so many different things.I never knew there were so many different ways to say goodbye.

As a Christian and a feminist, the most important message I can carry and fight for is the sacredness of each human life, and reproductive rights for all women are a crucial part of that. It is a moral necessity that we not be forced to bring children into the world for whom we cannot be responsible and adoring and present. We must not inflict life on children who will be resented; we must not inflict unwanted children on society.

Your life is a witness to the world of a loving savior and His redemptive plan for man.
