Relentless grace		What's with this faith that will not let me be? Freedom of choice, I have but grace pursues relentlessly. In work, in play, at home can I really be free? In none am I independent, alone, for grace pursues relentlessly. Recurring guilt I wear, events current or long ago, Where forgiveness? for I know that grace pursues relentlessly? Why is it so difficult to ask? Why refuse to open the door? Why hesitate to avail of grace that pursues relentlessly?
