Have you ever wished you could take your words back but know you can't? Like toothpaste out of the tube, words can't be put back in. Regret creeps in while grace waits for an invitation.
We've heard about grace and we know we need it, but what is grace, really? What does it sound like in the overwhelm of a busy and doing more life? What does grace look like when you're in the middle of a hard conversation or some impossible situation? Maybe your baby won't go back to sleep and you're exhausted. Or perhaps you're the mom in Target and your toddler is having a tantrum because they have more energy than you do. Did your friend just really say that out loud? Do you ignore it, pretending it didn't just wallop you?
What is grace then? We know grace is the better way. But let's be honest. Sometimes, grace is hard to come by.
Too often, grace is more like a side dish we hear about on Sundays, but not the nourishment that restores connection and rebuilds relationships on Mondays. Grace is like that muffled Charlie Brown Narrator that has something important to speak about who we're becoming, but it gets drowned out in the movements of ordinary everyday life.
If this resonates with you, you're not alone.
Here at Living the Grace Life, we invite God to help us replace the overwhelm of doing more and living less with a slower pace that nurtures God's grace in our ordinary, everyday lives.
God's grace for you.
God's grace for them.
Quotes from the episode:
Like toothpaste out of the tube, right? Words can't be put back in. The damage was done.
I knew I should have been more gracious. I knew it. You know it. We all know it. Grace is the better way. But sometimes, grace is hard to come by.
Grace is that muffled voice that has something important to say about who we're becoming, but it gets drowned out in the movements of everyday life.
Receive your place as a beloved daughter or son, slowed and softened, nurtured by God's real grace into your ordinary, everyday, real life.
