We Are The Times

“Bad times, hard times, this is what people keep saying; but let us live well, and times shall be good. We are the times; Such as we are, such are the times.” – Augustine

Jesus was sound asleep on a boat in the midst of a raging storm. His disciples were freaking out. They awoke Him and the first thing out of Jesus’s mouth was, “Why are ye fearful?” and then went about calming the seas.

We are the times; Such as we are, such are the times!

The Greek word for grace is charis. It is where we get the word charisma from, which is a dynamic personality that draws people to it. Those full of grace are charismatic. Grace is God’s gift of power, potential, and capacity that is given to us. When we are full of God’s grace it draws people to us as well as emanates from us, affecting everyone and everything around us.

We are the times; Such as we are, such are the times.
