I do!
It is easy to love the lovely, isn’t it? I wish I could say I love the unlovely with the same vigor, but I do not. Yet, Christ asks us to do just that.
Thanks for writing this…a great reminder for me to strive towards!

Thanks for your comments everyone. I felt a bit snarky this morning, so this was good for me to read too! :) Gotta love it when God uses your own words to convict you.

GRACE, GRACE and more GRACE needs to flow from each of our hearts. I will join you Heather to keep spreading HIS GRACE no matter how difficult it may be.

It is hard to be graceful when someone who isn’t is directing their “stuff” at you. But, I’m happy to know that in the midst of those moments, there is still a Voice in me that wants to respond with grace. How can that grace increase so that it becomes the first responder? That is a thought I ponder.
