GRACE PUTS THE PIECES TOGETHER

I remember years ago watching Tommy Cooper do a trick where you tear up a cigarette paper, blow on the pieces and magically them whole again. He then went on to teach the trick to the audience. The trick he told them was to have another cigarette paper hidden in between his fingers and he went through the trick again. However the obviously hidden second cigarette paper dropped from his hand and didn’t appear to notice. At the end of the trick when the audience thought that this was another of his tricks that wouldn’t work, he mysteriously put the pieces back together again, to rapturous applause.

God does this kind of thing with his Grace to his great glory.
