"Prompt: “When you get to the end of all the light you know and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: either you will be given something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly.” ― Edward Teller
What do you think about this quote?"

I think I agree with Mr. Teller. Faith is the ability to expect to be able to some way deal with every situation. My Christian faith gives me the ability to deal with situations that would cripple me otherwise and they always work out. I know that no matter what happens Jesus Christ is in control.

Prompt: Mary Oliver says, “You can have the other words-chance, luck, coincidence, serendipity. I'll take grace. I don't know what it is exactly, but I'll take it. ”
What is grace to you?

Grace to me is the unmerited or unearned favor of Jesus Christ toward those who are willing to accept Him. All he asks is that we believe in Him and do His will. Then His grace gives us the strength to do all those things.
