“God receives none but those who are forsaken, restores health to none but those who are sick, gives sight to none but the blind, and life to none but the dead. He does not give saintliness to any but sinners, nor wisdom to any but fools. In short: He has mercy on none but the wretched and gives grace to none but those who are in disgrace.”
Martin Luther – W.A. 1.183f
“Next time I get cut off in traffic, I need to remember the grace I have received, and delight to pass on, even in meager ways, the same grace shown to me.”
Loved this quote by Martin Luther on grace, that Ray David read last Sunday. Truly grace this transformative and unmerited, compels graciousness in response. Next time I get cut off in traffic, I need to remember the grace I have received, and delight to pass on, even in meager ways, the same grace shown to me. Grace leads to gracious acts.
