At the hostel we are staying there is this central ping pong table and most of the team plays fairly well (I don't) but liking the competitiveness of it i'm really trying to give them a run for their money.I asked God to explain grace to me because like most religious concepts the word is relatively butchered. As we were playing tonight I smashed one of the best shots I ever connected in my Ping pong career yet to my utter dissapointment it missed the table by an inch and I lost the point.God told me that grace is missing the table and not only not loosing a point but gaining one.Grace is God being with a syrian family every step of the way even though they might be missing the table.We dont understand God ,I atleast dont understand how his grace and protection goes beyond what we call religion.God is cool, and his love for (all) people is just as cool.

It's Clay, the guy you met in the park in Skopje! I figured I'd try to find you. It was so great to meet you and pray with you. I hope you're doing well. Still praying for you, man!
Your brother in Christ,
