Endless Grace

 Everything is grace.--St. Therese of Lisieux
 
Our whole lives are grace. When we are confused, when nothing makes sense, when God's silence is so loud we could scream, we are closer to grace. The longing we feel for God's nearness and help, this is grace. We must seek and receive the grace to always be aware of God. This is the best purpose of grace, to keep our wayward minds and hearts ever in God through Jesus, our Beloved. His love will never waver, though ours like the waves of the sea move up and down, back and forth. And on those days when our prayers seem to bounce off the ceiling and crash to the floor, when we do not think there is any reason to hope, we must open our mouths and plead for His invisible grace, for the battle belongs to the Lord. Praise You Lord for Your endless grace!
