Amazing Grace

ACIM Workbook Lesson #169
“By grace I live. By grace I am released.”

“Grace is acceptance of the Love of God within a world of seeming hate and fear.” [ACIM] In having an anything-goes conversation with a group of friends, it became apparent that we have different ways of talking to people with whom we disagree. In recent months, I have made an extreme effort to listen to others rather than immediately responding with admonitions and corrections of what I deem to be erroneous thought. I’ve written in the past that a favorite statement in such situations is, You may be right about that. This is something I don’t say anymore. Usually in the face of “alternative facts” I will say something like, If that’s true, we need to do something about it. And then I’ll suggest we research the topic and begin a dialogue about it. This has opened up a whole world of communication I would not normally be willing to have. “By grace I live. By grace I am released.” [ACIM] These conversations feel like amazing grace to me!

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“The miracle of grace is no miracle to Love.”
