The first lesson that I’ve learned from striving to write something daily is that I need grace. I want to write something daily to practice as well as to have a large body of work. But…I’m not perfect and never will be. And…that’s okay. Grace is with me to fill in my cracks.
Whether you are trying to write each day, trying to work out each day, or trying to eat less so you can lose weight each day, every endeavor requires grace. Grace will give me the strength to keep going. Grace will give me the forgiveness when I don’t do what I’m supposed to do. And…grace lets me see all of life as a journey and a package in which to learn wonderful lessons.
So, whether I do or don’t, I’ll be okay. Whether I fail or succeed, I’ll be okay. Grace ensures this. But…grace also doesn’t want me to stay stuck in my don’ts or my failures. It wants me to keep trying and making steps forward.
