Chrys - I guess what I meant was that I hope to see people progress from a focus on works to an understanding of grace. But yeah, within an individual at the same time I do see it the way you do. Hey, word games *and* theology!

"Grace is God doing for us, in us and through us that which He requires of us but which is impossible for us to do in or for ourselves."

 

But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." 2 Cor. 12:9.

I dunno, I think using proper names and words in other languages counts as cheating... won't stop me doing it now and then though. bwink

Edit: and yeah, on that one I didn't so much cheat as get called out to a meeting in the middle of it and just hit 'Post' to save the progress... then I came back and edited it so it would work properly (hence your comment above may be mystifying!)

Nice work on your solution

I worked backward.

There must be logic to that, but it just cracked me up..

So if I said go from Nuts to soup? You would then begin with soup???? rather than nuts??

If you receive benefit to being here please help out with expenses.

It's just something about finding a 'way in'... the problem with this game is heading off into dead end pathways, and it's pretty mcuh a trial and error process. Sometimes a different starting point leads our minds in different directions. Or something.
