Righteous vs Grace

One thing which Snr Pastor shared during sermon last week was that grace is much more important than righteous. How funny and difficult to understand, right? Shouldn't we always strive to do the right thing every time? We had been taught all along that we must not commit any mistake or we will be penalized for it. However, it is much more important to do the right thing at the right time. To do the right thing without grace may exactly turn out to be worse than not doing the right thing at all.
Witnessed a small incident which made me had a even greater understanding on how important grace is all about. To exercise grace may even mean that we have to learn to lower our own pride at times so that others can have the opportunity to repent from their past and learn not to commit mistake again. How much wisdom and strength we need to be able to exercise grace. To have more of others and to have lesser of ourselves.
Anyway, let continue to pray for peace and harmony and most importantly, love one another as we continue to press on till the day come. Let spur one another on especially as the day is approaching. We shall strengthen and not break one another, encourage instead of reprimand though there will be times where conflicts are meant to occur. That's all for now, and the sunshine is always brighter after the rain.
