In my opinion, God's grace is like the rain-water,  or the sunshine 
that falls upon everything beneath, irrespective of whether its a 
beautiful rose or some foul-smelling tank. 

Its upto the individual to realize it and make use of that grace. God 
never sends anyone empty handed. Once we approach him, His Grace 
flows. God is said to be "avYaaja karunaa, aHaituki Karunaa" etc. 

The Devas seek his help, so he protects them. The Asuras hate him, so 
he vanquishes them. Sri Krishna was available for the asking before 
the war, and Duryodhana even got the first chance, but he wanted only 
Krishna's army while Arjuna wanted Krishna himself. 

Thus in my opinion, God's grace is always available, only that we 
should understand it and make use of it.
