This is something which comes up regularly however I feel I have only got a vague grasp of what it means. The Interweb seems to throw up that old nugget of being forgiven by God and absolved of all sins. From a magical point of view then I feel it is the sacredness of thought unsullied by negativity - a sense of bliss? Nirvana? Interested i your definitions, you lovely people

Thank you, thank you all . It seems so simple and obvious . Yes,I understand it, from all of these beautiful defintions. It's like being reminded and of course it is our natural state. Blessed be, friends. And much gratitude.
I think Ariel describes it perfectly in each of his meditations...perfect love and perfect trust. That calm that comes from knowing that you are loved, that drives out fear and negativity. That's what I think of when I think of a "state of grace".
I love this discussion so much and it is something I have never really understood. Ariel's definition makes so much sense to me because its how I feel often when I am all arrghhhh and in my head it feels so disconnected and out of control. When I can be calm (like Melissa said!) I just feel like I step into the energy of love & perfection. It feels like there is nothing needed or wrong.
The first thing that came to my mind was calm. That sense of knowing that Goddess is here with me, guiding me. The lack of worry or fear, because my focus is on All love. It feels like a state of grace in which I am able to set down fear and worry and do whatever work is before me. Perfect trust.
Grace might be likened to the love of a mother for her child.
That love is not something the child earns. The child doesn't get that love because it did anything special for the mother. If that child stopped thinking of, looking at or listening to the mother. If the child ran away from home, for instance, the love for the child would not stop, but the effects of that love might stop being experienced by the child who had left the mother. Returning home to the mother, the effects of love would be restored to the child, but not because the mother stopped loving the child and then started again, but because the child reestablished its connection to the mother.
