                The grace of God is the most beautiful and powerful thing we will ever encounter, but it is also the most difficult concept for us to wrap our minds around.  Grace pushes back against our understanding of what is fair and what people deserve.  But the message of grace is one that the entire world needs to hear.
                In his upcoming book, One-Way Love: Inexhaustible Grace for an Exhausted World, Tullian Tchividjian borrows a helpful definition from Paul Zahl:
                “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.” --- whatsinthebible.com
