Finding Grace #187

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 week flew by!

The weather was chilly, cloudy, and sometimes rainy. I’m glad I did my outdoor chores last weekend! It’s definitely been a good week to dress in fun layers!

On Monday, Lydia did not have school due to a district-wide meeting or training. However, I still needed to work, so she went to the Y program all day anyway. At first, Lydia thought she’d be “the only one” there. But she came home and said it was her favorite day so far! She “can’t wait” for the next couple of days off later this month! Praise God!

On Tuesday, a dear friend came over for Taco Tuesday. I really appreciated catching up with her. We always have a good time!

On Thursday evening, I threw together a quick apple crisp for my ladies’ small group. It was tasty and I enjoyed hearing each person’s updates and answers to prayer!

Work went well this week, and I received several compliments. It can be quite busy at times, but I know I am in the right place and I am taking it all in stride.  I feel pretty confident and yet am still learning new parts of my job. I also had several meaningful conversations with my coworkers. I’m soooo grateful!

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)!
