Asking for grace



I fail, a lot.  I'll say something or do something and then be disappointed in the way I handled a situation.  I'm not sure how I could be so incredibly grateful for the enduring love that God provides and yet not be able to turn around and show that love to someone else.  I find that sometimes it is easier to go with the flow than to break free and live how God has asked me to live.  I fail him again and again and he never fails me.  So, I've been asking Him for a lot of grace lately.  Scratch that, I've been begging Him for grace.  I know that there is nothing I can do to earn it but the more I ask Him for it, the more I'm reminded to show it to others.  I am not perfect but He is and He reminds me everyday that He never falls short.

Much love,
Rachel Elizabeth
