Thoughts on Grace

I read this over at  “In the Heart of my Home” :  “I woke up in the morning after a very bad day and was reminded once more that God grants grace sufficient for the day. Every Single Day. My success lies in being open to every last bit of that grace.”

There is something so profound there.  It pulls to mind the scripture Matthew 6:34 “Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil.”  God is very much the God of this moment.   One thing I used to tell my CCD class was to pray every morning that they would live the day in accordance to God’s will.  Lord, lead me today to do your will in all things.  It is so easy to get caught up in the milieu of the day and to miss those things God would have us do.  Sometimes I get so caught up trying to take care of the stage that I miss the play.  Martha takes over and I forget to sit with Jesus.
