There are scars from the dis-grace of generations of hurts, slights and horrific acts and actions on one another. No one is innocent! No one is without guilt! In truth the realization we also are guilty is the beginning of turning from dis-grace to grace. Yes we have been harmed – but we have also harmed. Yes we have been abused – but we have also abused. The next step is to say they hurt me more than I hurt them. Can we know this? Or is it just what enables us to hurt others?

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.
