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 grateful for the ways God used me. I was able to catch up with several friends. I’m thankful I could listen to them and encourage them.
I also had some ladies over for Bible study. The topic is “Facing Fear, Finding Faith,” which is pertinent because everyone faces fear from time to time. I’m looking forward to connecting more with these friends and learning how to deal with fear in a godly way.
Yesterday, while Lydia was in school, I went to a local to pick some apples. I was able to enjoy a fun walk and the beautiful day. While I was there, I saw a garter snake, which was the first one I’ve seen in the eight years I’ve been in ND (and hopefully, the last!).
Today, Lydia and I have had fun together. We did some short exercises, played Jenga, read some books, talked with family on the phone, and watched a movie, I also mowed the lawn while Lydia played outside. It felt good to have a fairly relaxing day!
Where did you find God’s grace?

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)!
