Grace is something I think we first must experience at a deep level before we understand how to extend it. So maybe we must begin within.
(Btw, I gave you a little tag, for better or worse. )
Yes, L.L. Surely grace must begin there if we're to display it outwardly to the world.
Thanks for the tag, and I'll look into that soon. I did look over at your blog, and your thoughts are quite interesting from it, actually.
