Hello,
I'd like to know if it is correct to say " the grace is to have someone to support you " or the good sentence is to say " having someone to support you is a grace".
I would opt for the second choice, the first one seems to have a weak sense,
plz Please tell me what you think.
Thank you for your help.

Hello!
"the grace is to have someone to support you " or the good sentence is to say " having someone to support you is a grace".
The better word to use would be "blessing."
-- It's a blessing to have someone support you. (Notice the start of this sentence is different from how you started your sentence.)
-- Having someone support you is a blessing.
Hope this helps!

Thank you for your answer, but gramatically speaking I would like to know if it would be wrong to say "the grace is to have someone to support you" or " having someone to support you is a grace".
More explanations please...thank you.

Hello,
jonquille gave you the answer:
Having someone support you is a blessing. ...would be the right sentence.
You wrote:
having someone to support you is a grace...to is wrong; blessing is better than grace
the grace is to have someone to support you ...is not quite correct; it should be: It's a blessing to have someone support you.
