Nature and Grace - Lesson #16

Nature refers all things to herself and all her striving is for herself.

But grace refers all things back to God, who is their Source. Grace is not presumptuous and attributes no good to self; neither does grace argue or prefer her own opinions, but submits to Eternal Wisdom.

From "The Imitation of Christ" by Thomas A. Kempis
