Join me in the
Five Minute Friday Challenge hosted by Lisa-Jo Baker. Participants write for 5 minutes
with no editing, no over thinking, and no backtracking. This week’s word is: Grace.
(Go)
The piles pile
up.
The mess
gathers round.
I am tired – at
the most inconvenient of times.
The pinching
nerves in my shoulders keep a steady stream of ache in my arms.
I feel like I
have been served more than I can chew some days.
And yet…
This is all
part of His plan.
He has allowed
these things.
He has blessed
me with these things.
I do not mean
to complain.
I want to enjoy
what I have.
To live.
Fully alive.
My kind of
adventure is probably not the same as yours.
Neither are my
victories.
Life has taught
me to celebrate the little things;
To see, and to
seek, the beauty in each day.
And as I learn
to love myself and others where we are at-
To extend grace
to each moment.
I am grasping just
how
To eat an
elephant,
One small bite
at a time.
(Stop)
Now, your
turn…
