Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

Grace Given

I have seen grace given tonight.  By someone who is young.  Who has reason to withhold it.  But, who gave forgiveness, kindness and gentleness instead of bitterness and spite.  It was a moment of great joy for me.  To see the young person become more and better and able to do something hard...by choice.  And even in that moment, the person that she extended such an amazing amount of mature goodness towards, didn't reciprocate with what had been their responsibility.  But she did it anyway.  With flair.  With conviction.  I hope that she is amazingly proud of herself.  I know that she must feel stronger.  I was blessed....to see an answer to prayer.  To see the healing that occurs....even when others don't choose to do anything different.  God is good.
blessings.
