I have read a lot about offering grace to people in our lives.
Unexpected, not deserved grace.
I decided to put grace into action.
Emma washed her sheets the other day. That’s all. Just washed them. Left them in the washing machine.
While she was gone, I put them in the dryer & later made up her bed.
I would love it if someone made my bed for me!
She was very thankful.
I felt good about blessing her.
The twins were realty struggling tonight at bedtime.
Really struggling.
After multiple trips in to answer their calls, I informed them that I would spank them if I had to come in again.
And they called out again.
I decided to teach them about grace.
I walked in, knowing they expected me to deliver on my promise.
I took a minute to explain that I was going to offer them grace & not spank them. I explained that grace was when you didn’t get what you deserved.
I must’ve explained it too much or she was just tired of hearing my voice because Callie pipes up, “Or you could just spank us!”
Clearly I need to offer grace more often!
