Grace: God’s unmerited favor

I see God’s grace most clearly in my relationships. I did not do a thing to deserve the friends in my life. It is a privilege to have so many close, dear friends spread out across the country. I cherish those who are Team Caitlin and to care for me so well. I can’t quite put into works how thankful I am to have deep relationships with so many quality women and men. So today I’ll let someone else’s words speak how I feel.

“Friendship is an opportunity to act on God’s behalf in the lives of the people that we’re close to, reminding each other who God is. When we do the hard, intimate work of friendship, we bring a little more of the divine into daily life. We get to remind one another about the bigger, more beautiful picture that we can’t always see from where we are.”
