Â
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:Â This verse from Paul's letter to Titus from morning prayer. 'For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all' (2:11). Notice it does not read, salvation to some, or to the elect, but to all. If you read through the Bible you notice that, again and again, the love of God, the grace of God, is for all of creation. Churches forget this and sometimes find themselves sharing a meaner, more conditional vision of God's love.
