OK, are you ready? Give me your best five minutes on:
Grit…it’s the hard, messy stuff that resides deep down in each of us. It surfaces when a layer of ourselves gets peeled back, and the rough grime begins to spill out.
We have to face it…we have to believe it. Sometimes it’s shocking…we never knew it was there…but God did. He knew all along and He still loved us. So His love is never dependent on my perfection or my righteousness. He just allowed us to see what needs to be worked out of us.
Grit is also in the lives of others. It can look very ugly…especially when we don’t consider the grit in ourselves. Lord, help me to be gracious to those that I have a hard time loving, just as You have been gracious to me.
Hi, I’m Jacqui, a wife and stay at home mama. I started this blog to share what God’s teaching me - how He’s changing me. It seems that most days I’m a little messy and broken. This is where I’m finding petals of grace. Beauty from ashes. Will you join me?
Well said. :) While you complimented me on my creativity, you have a beautiful knack for getting right to the heart of the matter. That is a gift I wish I had.
Thank you, Aimee! I feel the same way about your creativity! Wish I had it:)
