Happy Monday, Friends! How was your weekend? It was pretty chill around here.
This week's focus is all about God's grace. :D
I hope y'all will extend me a little grace for posting so late: We had outdoor plumbing issues that needed addressing, and it was important to get our irrigation system working because we are having high temperatures and heat warnings for the next two weeks.

Until next time...

Happy Friday, Friends! I want to thank you first and foremost for all your prayers over the last several months. I am honored and privileged to know so many caring Prayer Warriors! I am truly blessed!
This week's guided journaling prompt asks us to revisit Week 41, and I'd rather not, LOL!
Here's the prompt:
Imagine you are washing the feet of your offender, perhaps the one you wrote about during Week 41. What do you need to tell this person? How could feeling secure in the forgiveness of Christ help you wash this person's feet?
My answer is that I keep going back to the Lord's Prayer: "Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us." I would probably simply tell that person: I forgive you. That's it!
What about you?
Prayer requests?
Until next time...
Blessings!

Happy Monday, Friends! Today is going to be a GREAT day! :D
Here's a hint:
I hope it will be a great day for us all!!! This week's writing prompt is challenging, and we have to look back to Week Forty-One to complete it. :/
Prayer requests?
Until next time...
Blessings!

Happy Friday, Friends! I hope you've had a great week. I've been confused the entire week because I had chemo on Tuesday rather than Monday due to Memorial Day!
This week's writing prompt is very personal and compelling:
Have you experienced the forgiveness of God through Jesus Christ? If so, write about when you first felt forgiven by him and how that changed you. If not, write about why you might be hesitant to accept God's forgiveness. Be as honest as you can be.
I have experienced the forgiveness of God through Jesus Christ, but the first time I felt forgiven was a very long time ago. However, I do remember that when I first studied the following verse: It truly shed new light on what it actually means to be completely forgiven and able to live free from fear:
"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love." 1 John 4:18

Do y'all have any prayer requests? I want to thank all of you for your prayers. My doctors can't get over how I've recovered from my concussion and all the scratches and bruises I received from my fall. I will be able to have more screen time this weekend, and I'm happy about that! Also, my LAST CHEMO SESSION is MONDAY!!! I'll get to ring the bell! 😌
Until next time...
Blessings!
