SAVING GRACE
you don’t do it for yourself
you don’t do it for your kids
you don’t do it for your husband
you don’t do it for company
you do it for God
God sees
God hears
God knows
even when no one does
even when no one understands
or notices
or thanks
or reciprocates
OF COURSE
as humans
we need the validation
the appreciation
the gratitude
every now and then
but keeping on
WHILE being dependent
on human validation
is the sure fire way to burnout
because there will be MANY days
when there’s nothing
and you’ll have to run on empty
or you can run on full.
you can ask to be filled… with grace
which comes in abundance
when we ask
because it’s always there for the asking.
grace is peace.
grace is hope.
grace is contentment.
grace is rest for the weary.
so be dependent on it
be on fire for it
hold on tight
to every moment of grace
that you can possibly grasp
it’s your lifeline.
it’s what will save you.
