Finding Grace #529

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 week felt busy because of work, but it actually all went smoothly.

Thanks for the support on my MARPE update. I appreciate the encouragement and prayers! 🙂

I talked with some fun Veterans this week. One was a little younger than me very concerned about potential heart disease. He had done an awesome job of making changes, and I was able to cheer him on and clarify some details. I also spoke with a man in his nineties who was very spry and asked about any changes he should make. That said, I’m sure his years of good habits are paying off for him now! It is so gratifying when people are eager to learn.

Lydia was able to sit out during gym this week, and she was a different person… much more energetic!  She has been slowly adding other “POTS-friendly” activities, like rowing or biking. But, I’m hopeful this is a start to her feeling better consistently.

Spring is definitely here! The temperatures have been up and down. My tulips are popping up, though it might be another week or so until they bloom. I added some books to my little free library, as I’ve seen a lot of people using it lately. Also, I might have to mow one of these days, but I hope to hold off for a bit! 😉

Today, I was on call for work but did not get called in. Woohoo! I worked on my last chapters for my church class. Lydia did some chores that I “required” before she was allowed to go shopping with a friend. It’s amazing how fast she got everything done, lol!

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)!
