where there is sin, there is grace
I love passion flowers, they are very common here, but what I love about this one is that it is growing on a barb wire fence. Reminds me of God’s goodness. Where there is danger there is peace. Where there is harshness there is beauty. Where there are fences there is freedom. And where there is sin there is grace.
For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
The law was added so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 5:19-21
