Hello there. Thanks for coming back with me, I appreciate it. For my come-back I had an amazing post planned; one that would inspire, challenge and invite you to keep coming for more. Alas, due to a sick little person, I have slept very little in the past three nights and now the powerful words I had stored in my brain are missing. Lost... Somewhere between "How much tylenol should I give a 25lb-1-year-old", "What should I wear today since I am functioning as a tissue?", and "Oh yeah, we´re not fasting any more, I have to cook real food!" I seem to have misplaced them. Sorry.
The one word that does come to mind and I know was supposed to be in said post is GRACE. As I have stepped into this new year and left the old one behind, I have been reminded afresh of the beauty of grace... the unfathomable reality of undeserved favor... the perfect and amazing love of the Bestow-er... and the power of the Gospel.
I have been challenged to remember that my good works are to be a result of the love for my Father, an act of worship, and not an attempt for approval... His or anyone else´s.
I have been challenged to remember that worship is, consequently, a lifestyle and not a compartmentalized action.
I have been challenged to bear in mind that I am called to share this grace, above all things, to the little souls that are entrusted to my care.
So, off I go to wipe the nose of a little man of God... that´s one of the faces of grace in this home today!

Glad you're back. Sorry you are dealing with sickness. Prayers for health...
Love reading your thoughts from the week.
Oh, I'm glad you're back! I was gone too and missed your entire decade!
Sorry that we couldn't get together yesterday. I missed you.
I'm working through that grace, and lifestyle worship too ... and remembering that being a mom is not just a job to be done while I'm living life, but a calling to put my whole heart into.
Can't wait to see you soon.
