Can you even get your head around how the God of the universe acts toward His creation? How do you explain, understand – grace. “God’s grace is usually defined as undeserved favor.

(I think I shall blame this on my mood when I penned this.)The following conversation you may never have experienced – I did. You can reverse the parent role, but the dialogue was always the same. Me: Mom can I go to (fill in the blank – movie, local teen hangout, etc.)Mom: Ask your Dad.Me:
