Grace is a gift we receive from God and from the people in our lives. Sometimes we may not notice it and other times it seems to flow freely.

God often uses our darkest days to show us that His grace is all we really need. In today’s episode, we explore living a Grace-full life, and when we need to allow ourselves a little extra measure of grace. Especially when it feels undeserved.

Main Points From the Show

We receive grace all the time. Sometimes we have to watch for it and other times it is impossible to miss. 

God is using my breast cancer diagnosis to shower me with grace and to prove to me that His grace is enough.

We can’t compare our lives with others because we are all created uniquely to fulfill our own purpose in life. Of course, we can swap stories and we absolutely should use our experiences to support one another, but each and every one of us has our own path to walk and our own experience to live.

As Christians, we don’t have to worry. We can rest in the knowledge that God is always with us and when this life on earth is over, He will continue to be with us throughout eternity.  We have nothing to fear and everything to be grateful for.

Quotes from the Show

I realized that God in His wisdom could see the big picture and He knew that both of those activities would be completed when their time was right.

He had a whole new chapter I’m my life that needed to be written. He showed me how I needed to experience the disappointment, the frustration and even the joy of my cancer journey before my story could be complete.
