beyond grace: why beyond grace?

There are times life seems so far away from my heart. Times when... I can't see the good through the mess of day to day life. It happens more than I want to admit. And days like that lead me back to this post... to the beginning of my heart in written form. Ah yes... Grace. The gift that I do not deserve, that He bestowed in spite of me. And so I try to live beyond grace...

I seek beauty. I splash in His Grace. Because I know this life is a gift.

hello...

i'm a new england girl, heart and soul... but florida has become part of me over the last 25 years, and it has become home. so here i am. daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend... writer.

i often wonder if that last part is real... i never really knew i was a writer. but the words keep coming. i write to share the gifts that God has showered me with, not to focus on the gifts, but on the grace. i write to make room for more in my mind and heart, and to remember. and when i think maybe the grace words have been used up, He tucks a few more into my soul and i keep writing.
