= D ivine Grace = By Justin Mantineo

Divine grace is an act of god that means multiple things. Divine grace sanctifies, beautifies, strengthens the will, enlightens the mind and inspires to pray. According to Mcmanaman a writer for catholiceducation.org " sharing in the divine life" (Mcmanaman). The next part is beautifying. This is where grace makes the soul beautiful and clean. The third step is strengthening the will. This is where grace allows us to resist evil, because we have been weakened by the original sin of Adam and Eve. Then come enlightenment of the mind. This is what allows people to tell good from bad and make the right choices in order to not sin. The final step is inspiration to pray. This is where the divine grace draws us closer to god by inspiring us to pray. This is why people thank, praise, adore and ask god for things. Divine grace does a lot to bring people closer to god and help them make the right choices, along with resisting evil.
