Ephesians is my favorite book of the Bible. I think of it as a grace book. Ephesians 2:8-10
"For by grace are ye saved, through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them."

Thought I got rid of the thought of electrons and such about ten years ago and then you surprise me with that? Now, I am traumatized. Know of any shrinks on here?

Take two electrons and you'll be balanced.

I don't like math either, it's scary. But I do like balancing accounts and seeing a blank tax form....imagine the possibilities

I'm teaching balancing equations, it is kind of like algebra- so not too bad. Geometry and calculus were my Achilles' heels when it came to math. For some reason, I did well in algebra. I guess it is less spatial and more numeric than geometry.I don't like math either, it's scary. But I do like balancing accounts and seeing a blank tax form....imagine the possibilities

Grace brought me here. I needed community, I felt so alone where I was. But just this little time here in this community has softened my heart and raised my spirits. God's Grace truly offers us comfort, through the meeting and talking to one another.
Grace gives me hope and confidence everyday that I won't randomly drop dead because I've been a terrible person.
Grace is Eternal!...and that Eternal Grace lives within our breasts, within those of us
who Love and Serve our Holy Saviour according His Commandments...

Romans 4:4
King James Version(KJV)
4.)Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

4.)Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
Religion says,"You can't do anything.You're a worm.You are nothing."That's true If you're talking about carnal,natural,freshly self.JESUS said:
Without me ye can do nothing.
Without me ye can do nothing.

"Grace ceases to be grace if God is compelled to bestow it in the presence of human merit…. Furthermore, grace ceases to be grace if God is compelled to withdraw it in the presence of human demerit. Indeed, grace is seen to be infinitely glorious only when it operates, as Packer says, “in defiance of” human demerit. Therefore, grace is not treating a person less than, as, or greater than he deserves. It is treating a person without the slightest reference to desert whatsoever, but solely according to the infinite goodness and sovereign purpose of God.” - Sam Storm

"Grace is love that seeks you out when you have nothing to give in return. Grace is love coming at you that has nothing to do with you. Grace is being loved when you are unlovable…. The cliché definition of grace is “unconditional love.” It is a true cliché, for it is a good description of the thing. Let’s go a little further, though. Grace is a love that has nothing to do with you, the beloved. It has everything and only to do with the lover. Grace is irrational in the sense that it has nothing to do with weights and measures. It has nothing to do with my intrinsic qualities or so-called “gifts” (whatever they may be). It reflects a decision on the part of the giver, the one who loves, in relation to the receiver, the one who is loved, that negates any qualifications the receiver may personally hold…. Grace is one-way love.” - Paul Zahl
