Jesus ministry had Grace and Truth as two of its' hallmark! When Jesus taught, All of His messages were richly imbued with BOTH Grace and Truth!
Truth is clarifying and magnifying . It lets us know what is valid and what we can depend upon and support and fearlessly advocate. Grace is gentle, supportive and nurturing. It protects and looks for the best that others can achieve. It comes along side and walks with a person as he or she heals and grows stronger and more confident.
Grace can be too soft and overprotective! It can rate not hurting people over giving them boldness and strength. Truth can be merciless. It can batter people and it can, too easily, be used as a weapon..
Jesus spoke and taught with Grace and Truth. It seems there is a good and strong reason for this order!
