What fists must I clench to receive His grace and blessing?
What fists must you unclench?
Here is a quote from Paul Taubman @ All About Gratitude that I am trying to understand.
“Most of us have two lives. The life we live, and the unlived life within us.
Between the two stands Resistance.”
~Steven Pressfield
Perhaps you could help me?

BecauseOfGrace
Amazing that you focused on “resistance” today…I, too, have been pondering resistance because I have been doing strength training (aka resistance training) for fitness. It hit me that resistance makes me stronger. That strength can either be developed for spreading love or not. I choose to utilize the obstacles in my life to become stronger and more loving. Thank you for a great thought starter today!
Janet: Thank you for giving me a thought-extension through your comment. I have also been putting my (weighty) toe in the pond of strength-training and you have helped me remember how productive resistance can be for building up. Thanks!
