Life is like a jigsaw puzzle. Each little piece is an aspect of our journey through it. And when at last we find that last piece and fit it into place, we eventually see the meaning of this life.

The G Piece - Grace
Having learned the lesson of forgiveness sometimes in difficult and harsh ways, I am also reminded that we are constantly being showered by His grace.
Some years ago, I came across a youtube video where a guest speaker (forget who) read some Rumi poems. This one really stood out for me and Rumi became one of my favourite poets.
The verse is a good reminder that God showers his love and Divine grace in abundance. But how much we are willing to receive is up to us.
Until very recently I was one of the many who found it real hard to accept a compliment or a gift graciously. But compliments and gifts are all part of His Divine grace. I have now learned to receive graciously and with gratitude.
And in doing that we not only bring the giver joy but we also send a message to the Universe that we are open and willing to receive.
May the cup of your life hold His eternal wine.

The wine of Divine Grace is limitless
All limits come only from the faults of the cup.
Moonlight floods the whole sky from horizon to horizon;
How much it can fill your room depends on its window.
Grant a great dignity, my friend, to the cup of your life;
Love has designed it to hold His eternal wine.
