Attracting Grace...

If grace had to depend solely on human merit, if it had to be fully worked for and earned, it would no longer be grace.

It really depends on the mysterious will of the higher power.

But this is not to say that it comes by the caprice of the higher power.

If a man puts himself into a sufficiently receptive attitude, and if he applies the admonition "Be still and know that I am God," he is doing something to attract grace.
