We can try all we want to squirm out of it (believe us, we’ve tried) but Jesus told us to be like himself when it came to giving: not giving out of surplus, nor guilt, but being willing to give everything up. Where we (all!) fall short on that, let’s now come back to the grace thing. Grace is where every single thing in our christian lives must begin and end and never ever stop. It is not a doctrine, grace is a person, our only answer, our only fuel, if we’re to be the kind of self-giving people we know we want to be. So - as we take this moment to remember the kind of church we know bread will be again - let’s make it about grace.
