Hypocrisy Versus Grace

May 15, 2015 By Mary Hill 3 Comments

Hypocrisy Versus GraceHypocrisy is the enemy of grace.

Hypocrisy cries hate

Hypocrisy is racism, prejudice, and dream killing rage

Rage against hope and acceptance

Rage against care

Evil dampens the spirits of all

Hypocrisy points to the weakness ignoring the pain that causes it.

[tweetthis url=”https://www.maryanderingcreatively.com/hypocrisy-versus-grace-3/”]Hypocrisy says I am better than you. I have more to give.[/tweetthis]

You are small and not wanted here.

I may commit the same sins; I may commit the same disgrace

But this is not about me. It is about the worse in you because …

I feel better when you are lower.

Grace cries out love

Grace weaves her arms into hugs and embraces

[tweetthis url=”https://www.maryanderingcreatively.com/hypocrisy-versus-grace-3/”]Grace cries out love. Grace weaves her arms into hugs and embraces[/tweetthis]

That gives room to grow and live out dreams

Grace says I am better when I reach out to help you succeed.

Grace knows no boundaries or divisions.

Grace greets with acceptance

Grace allows weakness

Grace allows difference and sees it as strength

Grace sees others through a lens of love, acceptance, and honor.

    Thanks for a great post, Claire! So many businesses, non-profits & people don’t “get” the sharing, caring, listening, engaging & paying-it-forward that makes up & becomes the magic of building amazing relationships on social media!

    How grateful I am for God’s grace lavished so freely on me! It’s pretty rotten when I’m not willing to extend the same grace to others. Thank you for linking up at Grace & Truth!
