Genesis 36

...They took their names from the places where they settled...
To be part of the place where one lives, that is grace. To feel in tune with the neighbourhood, the culture, and the spirit of a place. I like this passage from Genesis because taking the names of the place means a willingness to be apart of what is happening in that place. I would say being apart of what God is doing in that place. Living in any place, when one opens their eyes to life around them
, is an invitation to see God and be part of grace.
