Jeg tror på nåde. Ikke på karma. Bono har skrevet den smukkeste sang om hvad nåden er. Nåden skaber skønhed ud af grimme ting.
Grace
She takes the blame
She covers the shame
Removes the stain
It could be her name
Grace
It's a name for a girl
It's also a thought that changed the world
And when she walks on the street
You can hear the strings
Grace finds goodness in everything
Grace, she's got the walk
Not on a ramp or on chalk
She's got the time to talk
She travels outside of karma
She travels outside of karma
When she goes to work
You can hear her strings
Grace finds beauty in everything
Grace, she carries a world on her hips
No champagne flute for her lips
No twirls or skips between her fingertips
She carries a pearl in perfect condition
What once was hurt
What once was friction
What left a mark
No longer stings
Because grace makes beauty
Out of ugly things
Grace makes beauty out of ugly things
Grace
She takes the blame
She covers the shame
Removes the stain
It could be her name

Grace finds goodness in everything
Grace, she's got the walk

She travels outside of karma
When she goes to work

Grace finds beauty in everything
Grace, she carries a world on her hips
No champagne flute for her lips
No twirls or skips between her fingertips
She carries a pearl in perfect condition
What once was hurt
What once was friction
What left a mark
No longer stings
Because grace makes beauty
Out of ugly things
Grace makes beauty out of ugly things
Har fundet en rigtig fin blog: www.godmessedmeup.blogspot.com. Her er nogle gode tanker - men særligt er jeg vild med den collage som lige er blevet lagt ind. Og så passer den til det jeg selv lige har skrevet om nåden. På collagen er der et citat fra C.S. Lewis, ham som bl.a. har skrevet Narnia bøgerne:
ReplyDelete"I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy. The most probable explanation is that I was made for another world."
Kære Anne!
