Embracing grace

“This covering-of-wrongs-love shows us why Peter uses the word ekteme, ‘strenuously,’ again.  Love stretches us, but it also stretches itself over the wrongs and faults of others.  Instead of accusing, resourceful love sees and understands, see and forgives, sees and stays with, and because it does all these things, it gets beyond the wrongs to a life that engulfs our faults in a forgiving, healing, embracing grace,” (p 138)

What is embracing grace for you?
