And so irony creeps into the very springs of one's being.

So that when you and I come to lie upon our death beds, the one thing that should comfort and help and strengthen us there is the thing that helped us in the beginning.

Grace wondrous grace. By the grace of God I am what I am. Yet not I, but the Grace of God which was with me.
