Finding Grace #127

I love giving God a shout out for what He has done. We don’t do that nearly enough!

You may have seen the acronym GRACE as God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense. Grace is also God’s unmerited favor, or God doing for us what we cannot.

I find grace overflowing with God’s love, joy, peace, blessings, mercy, power, provision, protection, and wisdom. Thank You, Jesus!

Where did I find God’s love and favor—His abundant grace—this week?

This was a fun week and I am thankful for how God moved. I wasn’t sure I would meet a deadline for Monday, but I did! Later in the week, I got encouraging feedback from my editor. Whew! 🙂

Work went well this week and I had a full schedule. It has taken me a long time to find joy in my work again. For several years after Dave died, nothing seemed exciting…let alone work! Lately, it has started feeling good again. Being part of a team and having patients who are eager to learn has helped!

This week, we hung out with neighbors, enjoying ice cream and pool time. Yesterday, Lydia went down the block for a get-together with girls in her grade. She had fun but came home not feeling well. She had a headache and a slight fever. After I took her temperature, she went to bed early. She needed the rest!

Today, Lydia is feeling mostly better (just a bad cold). I encouraged her to take it easy, so she has been watching ‘My Little Pony’ and relaxing on the couch! I also have been enjoying the quiet day. I’m glad I ran my errands earlier in the week!

These are only a few examples, but God’s grace never runs out!

There’s grace in every situation—we just need to look for it. God promises if we seek Him, we will find Him (see Jeremiah 29:13)!
