Grace seems to be a stumbling block for my personality in a "different" way. I"ve been a Jesus lover for 54 years but am always working at trying to be more like Jesus, like the Bible tells us to do. I believe Grace is easier for some personalities than others, but required of all. I'm very good at actions of grace, but in verbal exchange, I have found I tend to jump to "assumptions" of what the other is trying to say and thinking they are : lying, deceiving, misleading, etc. Which unfortuantely happens all too often these days . I have a prophet personality, which is high in justice and fairness. Anyhow, in your heart, what do you think it means to use justice with grace. when you approach someone, if you are taking a grace attitude, what does that mean ? I hope this is clear enough. I am not a new believer, just digging deeper.

I would try to concentrate on what the other person is trying to tell you. It is difficult sometimes to actually hear what a person is saying, and not hear what you want to hear. Just keep your heart wide open, and let Jesus guide your steps. This will take a lot of patience, and time; but you can do it if you truly want to.
Good Luck!

I think that using justice with grace is giving people the benefit of the doubt no matter what the situation/circumstance may be. It's always better to add to people's life than it is to take it away.
