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 in 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 was restful and fun. We had a couple late nights, but it was made easier knowing Lydia Thursday and Friday off school. We had teacher conferences this week, a writing meeting, and church (JBQ). But, we enjoyed all of those activities!

At work, a few more kinks were worked out and I feel good that things are on track. I am thankful for what God is doing and I am eager to keep using my skills!

Lydia and I have been enjoying her time off school. We’re both grateful for the break!So far, we have slept in, jumped on the trampoline (inside), put together puzzles, and more. Something excited happened this week in that Lydia lost her second top front tooth this month! It’s fun to watch her grow up!

Otherwise, it’s been a rather low key week. I’ll take it! Since I am not rushing around like the proverbial chicken with my head cut off, I’ve had some extra time to enjoy the fall colors. I have a total of five trees in my yard. One has lost all its leaves, and the others are on their way. Most of them turned a lovely red color (maple trees) while the other one is yellow (a linden tree). Thank You, Jesus!

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)!
