Although I feel like we're only at the beginning of this season, I've already found myself constantly rediscovering grace through each painful moment. Whether that's grace for myself, or grace for others, God has really been using this time to shape and soften my heart. For me, every trial in my life has only provided an opportunity for me to choose God's grace; every struggle has been a chance to choose how I see where I'm at. Discovering grace in chaos doesn't mean the chaos is easy, it doesn't mean the struggle isn't real, it means we reject the alternative course of action, be it depression, be it anger, or just whatever - and we choose grace. In my life, I have found grace in the little moments, usually when I'm at my weakest, or when my heart feels most broken. Sometimes, it has been when I've completely run out of patience, that I find myself asking for grace for someone else, and for myself, so no one winds up physically hurt ;)
When I was thinking about this title, I truly felt inspired by "Grace in Chaos"…being the over thinker that I am though, I wanted to add to it, but I had too many word choices!
Choosing…grace in chaos.
Discovering…grace in chaos.
Finding…grace in chaos.
So I'm keeping it simple! I hope it speaks to you like it does to me.

Thanks for your continued support as I journey through this season via this blog. I write for myself, but I write for you as well, sweet reader. I write for those of us who are hurting, and those who want to support the ones who hurt. I have found so much peace through this little blog of mine, mostly from how many of you connect with us, even if it's just to say hello. Ryan and I appreciate each one of you, and look forward to whatever else this journey may bring.
