I believe I have received it and it is enriched when I can recognize it and learn to be grateful and the pass any grace I have received onto the next person I encounter. Grace is trying to be a better human but knowing me and my Higher Power are OK no matter what. <br /><br />Hahaha...for what that's worth ;)Linda dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01167854309289774316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729559664676971737.post-41904902145648036472017-08-07T12:25:45.713-04:002017-08-07T12:25:45.713-04:00VERY true.VERY true.Colettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13929646037752189809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729559664676971737.post-37002151584429520812017-08-07T08:05:17.334-04:002017-08-07T08:05:17.334-04:00Very similar to a parents' love for a child.

Mercy is another word that confounds me. Anyway, thanks for this. I wish I had grown up knowing Latin. I certainly grew up hearing it often enough.

Heathens, all of them, myself included.<br />But I like the religious concept of mercy and grace.Sabinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09015827501648296977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729559664676971737.post-51998180801708287922017-08-04T06:32:10.361-04:002017-08-04T06:32:10.361-04:00There is such power in love.There is such power in love.Colettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13929646037752189809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729559664676971737.post-74709689419291571012017-08-04T06:29:28.446-04:002017-08-04T06:29:28.446-04:00Ha!
