From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. (John 1.16 NRSV)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Art Linkletter in the segment of his TV show called, "Kids say the darndest things," once interviewed a little girl of about 6 or 7. He asked her "What does love look like?" The little girl answered "It's when I let Johnny get in front of me at the drinking fountain line." Art Linkletter smiled and said "Well, you must love Johnny very much." But the little girl responded, "No, I don't even like him."
That IS what love looks like, isn't it? God loved us when we weren't even likeable. We are saved by grace.

Dear God, speak whispers of grace to all of your children. Amen.
