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 good week, that both felt long and rushed at the same time! We enjoyed a quiet Memorial Day weekend, which included painting two benches (see above) and mowing. Then, Lydia had three more days of school before summer break.

Thursday was Lydia’s last day of school. I tried to get as many errands done as possible before I have a little shadow for three months! Being together ‘all day’ will be a slight re-adjustment, but we are both looking forward to a freer schedule! (Of course, Lydia will also have to attend daycare while I work.)

We caught up with several neighbors this week and ate pizza with one family. Lydia and I chalked up the sidewalks to spread the word about our little free library. We also pulled weeds, laid mulch, and cleaned the garage. We were productive!

My mother-in-law came to visit this weekend, so we have been enjoying time with her! Lydia has been counting down the days for nearly a month. 🙂 So far, we went out to eat, celebrated her birthday, went shopping, saw a movie, and enjoyed cheesecake. We always enjoy having company and have other fun activities planned, too!

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)!
