Grace.

A simple explanation of this complex word is this: being given something that you do not deserve.  I am daily humbled by the fact that I am saved by the grace of God.   I want so badly to live a life that extends grace to those I come in contact with.

"So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus."
Ephesians 2:7
For those who daily show me grace, thank you.  Your example inspires me to do the same.

    Wow, I love your creativity. I can't wait to get one of your creations of my very own... just waiting on my house to be finished!

    By the way. YOU'VE BEEN TAGGED!

    It's as easy as 1,2,3!!
    1. Pick up the book nearest to you & go to page 123.
    2. Find the fifth sentence.
    3. Type & post the next three sentences after the fifth one.

    Then pass it on!

    So well put...thanks for the reminder :)

    And that sign is fabulous, I'd love to have one that says *hope* (my daughter's middle name). Do you do special orders?

    Have a blessed day :)

    Oh! I love that sign!! I am still in the stages of thinking of all the possibilities of ordering a sign from you! I have narrowed it down to ...ummm...5? Ah! Guess I need some more thinking! I also love the verses you post - you are just a blessing!
