"I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron. I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the LORD, the God of Israel, who summons you by name." Isaiah 45:2-3 (NIV)

I definitely agree. They are both things that I try to constantly be aware of and pass on to my girls.

Amen!

I'm so thankful for the grace shown to me over my life, and the life of our family.

God has been just way to good to us.

My desire is to show more grace as well. That's an area I find I always struggle in.

But I'm learning.... :)
