Amazing Grace


It's been kind of a heavy week.  There is a sense of mourning in the air - Remembrance Day, Leonard Cohen's death, the US election.


And yet, if we are alert, God's amazing grace is all around us.  In an unexpected flower, a rainbow, a spider's web in the rain.


My prayer for us all this day, is that we are able to see and feel God's grace.  Leonard Cohen did.  He asked for it in every poem he wrote.  He knew, that even in the darkness, God is always beside us.  Cohen knew how to talk to God; he was a great psalmist.
