Re: What Grace Means to Me

“To love and appreciate, without jealousy, cowardly possessiveness, or controlling anger” the phrase you use here just really hit me in the heart. I have loved so possessively, jealously, and with such anger resulting from the jealousy that it nearly destroyed me. Your poem is beautifully written. I think that anyone that reads it can find a phrase or two that hits home for them. Hope to see more.

This piece is so profound and seems to be all encompassing of the vicissitudes of life's circumstances.
It embraces various forms of paradoxical scenarios of both abstract and concrete imagery; that gives it some form of sensory details drawn from one's personal life's experience and general experience e.g on the phrase, "To do without trying”
Note that there was a repetition of "To" which can be replaced with other participial phrases and syntaxes.

Very engaging piece. Good job :P

The thought procedure that was put into this poem, is polished while being very informative. The fundamental points are something that everyone in life can relate to, we all have to be thorough of that thin line. No one person is better than the next we are all fellow in our own unique way.

Yes it is, what grace should mean. A thoughtful pieces of words to define an absolute imperfect world we have and to do an not to do is the main thing.

For me Grace is the face that love wears when it meets imperfection
It highlights how grace is a manifestation of love, especially in the presence of flaws and imperfection. Grace doesn’t demand perfection; instead, it accepts and uplifts despite shortcomings, showing unconditional love.just like how God's grace sustain us .
even how many times we fail him still his grace his sufficient in us
