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?

Happy New Year! 2019 is off to a good start! We rang in the new year at home. It was chilly and blizzardy, but we didn’t mind! My snowblower still isn’t working so the next day, I spent 2 hours in below zero temperatures shoveling snow. It wasn’t as bad as it sounds, and later in the week I treated myself to a massage! 😉 

On Wednesday, we went back to school and work. Lydia was glad to see her friends. We also received a good report at the orthodontist. Lydia has had an expander for the last few weeks. Thankfully, it is doing its job and she will likely be getting braces next month.

Thursday was a busy day! After school and work, Lydia played with friends in the snow while I did things aroud the house. Lydia was invited to a neighbor’s house for dinner which was much appreciated.

Then, later on Thursday evening, I had some friends over for Bible study and to visit. We ladies meet regularly and it is always good to encourage each other!

I’m grateful for how God always directs our path and blesses us. He is so good!

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)!
