10. (again)
So, I underestimated my counting skills. I began on August 11th,
thinking that there were 30 days until my anniversary. That 31st day of
August goofed up my counting, so I'll do another #10 today as it's
September 1st.
Today I am thankful for grace.
Grace in my mistakes.
Grace when I can't count thirty days on a calendar between two months correctly.
Grace when I'm lacking in people skills and overreact to something small.
Grace when I don't deserve it.
Grace when I'm less than gracious.
Grace when I'm doing well.
Grace that reminds me to love in ALL THINGS.
Grace when I act well.
You see, grace is not just in our error, but grace covers us so we also
can show grace. We are reminded of what we have been forgiven and we
can in turn extend that love and forgiveness to others.
Not a one of us deserve the blessed grace we receive, but we still rejoice in it.
Today is the first day of September, and in just ten days, I'll have my
10th Wedding Anniversary. Our marriage is a beautiful tapestry of grace
woven through and through.
So today, I am thankful for grace.
Always striving to be transparent and sincere as I learn what the Love of God truly means. "But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect" (1 Peter 3:15)
