The
most baffling thing in life is to listen to life. Many times, I do not want to.
But I must listen to it these days.
And as I listen to life, all the hidden joys, and
sorrows pop up. Lost dreams, victories, smiles, tears, and laughers.
Am
I a child of Grace? Have I listened to the Grace all around me, within me and
about me? There is plenty of room to recognize Grace or not to recognize Grace.
Eating lunch with a long lost friend, or accepting the sweltering heat of the
day , all these can be a mixed bag of Grace.
Hearing the summer rains patter against the window or a day's closing with a decent work. All this is to listen to
Grace.
It
is a haunting feeling to listen to the self-voice, “Why me?” “Why all this Grace to me?... to touch, to
smell and to taste… to see, to listen and to feel. In a limited life, it is the
limitless Grace.
Amazing Grace! It is all around. The
fathomless magnitude of this overflowing Grace simply immobilizes me!
I
listen to life!
