God's all redeeming grace. Indeed it is the one thing that saves us. It is undeserved, for we are not capable in and of ourselves to save ourselves by any power that we might possess. We must humble ourselves and seek his mercy in order to save ourselves. Those too full of themselves and their self appointed importance, will miss out again, and again.

Who hasn't made any
mistakes in life?
It is good to have a way to ask for forgiveness.
We all should fight against greed, sloth, envy, avarice, and lies.
Thanks for sharing such a nice work.

(Rhythming Acrostic - see error here.)
Yes, Love Eternal is simply there for the taking - for everyone to embody, share, shine and become.
So true - 'Gracious atonement is always right there'.

I really liked your artwork and thought the poem was well written.
Cry out with thunderous Joy - His life sacrificed
Ending all of man's sins that simply are outmatched. [I love this line.]

There's an effective aggression to this, giving the second stanza a strong contrast against the calmness and solace of the first one. You do a good job of showing man's failings.

He is the Light at the End of the Tunnel of which each and every one of us must pass. Some of us will pay a higher toll for the roads taken that damaged that which was a pure soul.

Comment from Bill Schott
This acrostic poem, God's Grace, follows the vertical, first-letter theme and remind the readers that God has made a way to save the day and be okay.

You have written well of the Christian message, and successfully combined both the acrostic format and the rhyming lines - smoothly flowing and unforced. Best wishes for your entry.

What a precious thought to keep in our minds all the days of our lives. All we need do is believe and he will do the rest. We will have an eternity of love because he sacrificed for us.
