Happy Monday! I hope that you had a wonderful weekend. In a world filled with a whole lot of confusion and chaos, we all need a little grace! Grace brings peace and joy to our lives.
For many years, I lived my life in condemnation. Every time I made a mistake, I put myself down. What I didn’t realize, that self condemnation was eating away at my confidence, peace, and joy.
What I didn’t realize then, was God gives us grace to forgive ourselves from mistakes. He doesn’t want us to live in condemnation. Philippians 4:7 states, “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Do you show yourself grace when you fail and make mistakes?
When we are at our worst, we need God’s grace. Even at our best, we need to have God’s grace in our lives.
I figured out over time, that I need peace and joy from God to make it. In my own strength, I can’t do anything.
When we have the grace of God, we also have peace and joy in our lives. I don’t know about you, but I need joy and peace. Romans 14:17 states, “For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.”
God offers us peace, grace, and joy everyday of our lives. Accept it!

Happy June! Summer is always a time of rest for me. I love all the tastes of Summer such as the snow cones and the homemade ice cream. Friends as we head into the Summer season, don’t worry, it’s never too late to make a change!
Friends, it is never too late to do a little Spring cleaning. Summer is probably my most favorite time to do some Spring cleaning.
In the same way, we clean out our homes, we can actually clean up our unhealthy habits. What unhealthy habits is God asking you to clean out? I admit that I tend to struggle with worry. Many times, I lay my worries down and then go back and pick them up.
It is so easy to get caught up in our worries and forget we have access to someone that takes our worries away. Don’t worry, it’s never too late to make a change.
Isaiah 41:10 states, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
The Bible tells us to not fear because God will give us strength. At the foundation of my worries, is fear. I know that I need to trust God, but sometimes it is so hard. I know that God loves me so much because the Bible tells me. However, there are times that I don’t feel loved.
When I truly allow the Word of God to seep in my heart, I feel God’s love. But when I put up walls, I don’t!
Luke 12:24 states, “Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds!”
Friends, we are valuable to God. He loves us so much.
Instead of worry, concentrate on the love of God today.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. You are the best. Let me know if I can pray for you.
Happy Tuesday! I hope that you had a wonderful weekend. My grands came into town over the weekend. It is always a good time when the grands are here. Friends, how are you doing? I admit, I am feeling a lot of sadness. Good grief we just need a minute to process.
With all that is going on in the world right now, I would be overwhelmed with grief if it wasn’t for God.
2 Corinthians 7:6 states, “But God, who comforts and encourages the depressed and the disquieted, comforted us by the arrival of Titus.”
Friends we can be encouraged today because we know a God that comforts and encourages us. He never leaves us. God earnestly cares for us but good grief we just need a minute to process.
Going back to what we know gives us comfort that God will be and is always with us. The God who comforts and encourages, comforts me.
Take a minute to process and think about all of the things that God has brought you through. He will never stop.
