Grace is explicitly the expression of gratitude to a specific power: the power that holds your wellbeing and you life in its hand and you’re grateful that it allowed you a measure of happiness (see the Book of Job for the case when it did not). At best this attitude contributes to learned helplessness—“Man proposes, God disposes”, aka Inshallah!
