What is grace?

St. John of the Cross says it so clearly…

“What is grace?” I asked God.
And he said,
“All that happens.”
Then He added, when I looked perplexed,
“Could not lovers
say that every moment in their Beloved’s arms
was grace?
Existence is my arms,
though I will understand how one can turn
away from
me
until the heart has
wisdom.”

I like to hear from you
