Grace and some ...

Romans 8:6-7 

For the outlook of the flesh is death, but the outlook of the Spirit is life and peace, 

because the outlook of the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit 

to the law of God, nor is it able to do so.

 

Grace and some ...

 

Life is good and so is living

Why is existence so attractive?

Is it because there’s no forgiving

As that one is only just selective?

 

Life cannot be diminished

It resides for beyond our reach

It is so different with existence

That we form to our own need

 

Life is given without measure

There’s truly not an end in sight

The other cannot grasp forever

Limited in power of one’s own mind

 

Life thrives in love and compassion

It is sustained by limitless empathy

The other lives only by set rations

That natural grace calls sympathy

 

Life has been set free from all limits

Existence has only set boundaries

That in every way assigned prohibits

Being formed in world’s icy foundries
