…My grace is sufficient

This past weekend I was graced to spend a weekend scrapbooking with my Sistahs in Holland, Michigan. It was filled with fun, laughter, moments of ‘what the heck’ and just getting to know each individual a little bit better. The group is eclectic and how our puzzle piece fit together – in this time…in this moment is one of those excursions in my life’s journey. 

This morning I was contemplating some exchanges with an individual. It is this quiet moment of the morning I have come to be aware that this is when my Lord speaks to me though my spirit. The interaction didn’t appear to be overtly concerning but a bit eccentric.  In response to my query of the interactions what spoke to me was, “My grace is sufficient.” Lord I here You and it shall be done.

This life & these interactions with others of different ‘life journeys’ show us the way Lord. Thank you, Lord, for your small voice that forces me to be quite so that I can heard You.

Memorialize

I’ve pondered a rant on social media earlier this week. The person identified it as his 2^ndrant of the week.  Maybe, I’ll explore the earlier rant on my blog at a later time.  Periodically I’ve thought about his rationale that Memorial Day is for those who made the ultimate sacrifice of life in service for America and not the acknowledgement of veterans. They have Veterans Day.

My thought on this matter is anyone who has stamped there posterior ‘Grade A USA Property’ by signing their name to serve deserves to be acknowledged more than once or even two days out of a year. As a US veteran if someone wants to acknowledge my service on Memorial Day, Veteran’s Day, or any other day I’m going to say thank you! Everyday people remember the deceased my doing for the living. They are called memorials, scholarships, donations, and monuments which are acknowledge of this fact.

Matter-of-fact those who died, served, and are serving are the reason your rant is possible. You have the voice to freely express your idea. So, on this Memorial Day weekend I’d like to thank all of those who have chosen to serve for my voice & yours. And I’m going to try to find a way to get in on some of the offers that many businesses are offering this Veteran’s Day to veterans, Gold Star Families, and surviving members family this weekend. THANK YOU for YOUR SERVICE!
