Anyone who will not join in the march loses toudh with God's people, even if he dwells in temples. What is true for the individual is no less true for the church as a whole. A continual exodus is the reverse side of Christian freedom. I personally like that. Three qualities of grace are fairly consistent.
Grace occurs serendipitously, in unexpected circumstances or through unlikely persons.
Grace has the quality of universal love, being loved in relation to a person or situation. Finally, grace has a result. Invariably at the time, or upon recollecting, a person experiences a change in perspective or direction. In short, Grace suprises us, makes us feel loved, and changes how we see life. If it was left up to us it would never happen.
