All around are those who either hate or even worse do not care about others. Those who do not care and use others are dead. They are dead to life. They are dead even to themselves. Believing in their own power they do not see the evil one who is their puppet-master. They do not see the judgment to come. My Mom would say we will all be judged either in this life or the next. It is better to be judged in this life. Grace is our hope of having the judgment in this temporary life rather then eternal life.

From my Grace Journal. It was suggested to start a Grace Journal as a reminder of our need not for agreement but grace to guide our relationships.
