His Grace Is Enough For Me

This past week, I've spent a lot of time on my knees praying for direction in a lot of areas.

My oldest daughter is out of school-graduating next weekend. She'll be heading to college in the fall. How can I just let her go? I know parents face this all the time. But I needed the grace. HIS grace, because she's not mine anyway--she's His, just on loan to me. HIS grace comforts me that when she leaves, she's not out alone. She's in His hands. HIS grace is enough for me.

My writing/career is changing, growing, evolving. How can I not be in control of it? HIS grace carries me, because my writing/my career has never been in ANYONE's hands BUT HIS. HIS and His alone. Whatever gift of writing I have is only on loan to me. HIS grace is enough for me.

People change. How could I let people surprise me? HIS grace carries me. I'm not put on this earth for anyone but HIM. He's my rock, my salvation, and as long as I honor Him and strive to do what Jesus would do in any and all situations, how others change or behave has nothing to do with me. HIS grace is enough for me.

So, how about you? Are you letting HIS grace be enough for you?

Many blessings to you all and have a great weekend.
