Finding Grace #234

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 busy, but fulfilling week! On Sunday, Lydia got a new pair of shoes for school. We also met her teacher this week, and Lydia made sure her desk and locker are ready to go for her first day next week! With the current COVID guidelines, she will have about ten kids in her cohort, with the other thirteen kids in her class are in the other cohort (attending on different days). It will be an interesting year!

I had some great patients at the VA this week! Several Veterans were making good progress, which is always gratifying.

On Friday, I also taught my first nutrition class at the local college. I hope it goes well, and I can already tell it is a good fit for me. I have a lot of prep work still to do (to revise assignments and such), but I had fun meeting my students!

Today, one of Lydia’s friends came over to play. After that, we hung out with another family. We walked around some local botanical gardens and went to get frozen yogurt. We always have fun together, and I’m glad we made time to meet up!

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)!
