Ugly Grace

When I was pulled over and let go without a ticket, that was an act of mercy. But let me share what grace truly means. Grace would be getting pulled over when I clearly deserve a ticket, and instead of issuing one, the police officer reaches into his wallet, pays the fine for me, and then goes beyond that—handing me everything else he has. That’s grace in its purest form. It’s even more profound because it’s not just about being good or well-behaved; it's a gift given when we deserve the opposite. Now, I'd like to introduce you to the concept of Ugly Grace. Ugly represents the hard work that makes grace truly beautiful. Imagine the police officer not only paying my fine but also showing up in court, serving my sentence, and even sacrificing his own life for my betterment. That’s undeniably ugly—it's inconvenient, challenging, and, in many ways, seemingly impossible in today’s world. Yet, if he were to do all that, it would embody what I call Ugly Grace.
