8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. As time goes by. In bit o' growth. I wonder if it seems like 730 days to her…. I wonder if time stands still when you are in the presence of God…. I wonder if she witnessed the birth of her great grandchild…. I wonder if…. 2 years seems like a long time…. She’s been gone for 2 years. But i remember it like it was yesterday –. The weeks and months leading up. As time goes on…. Those “finally” moments. The ordinary, day-to-day happenings…. Enter your...

8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. In bit o' growth. I think we are conditioned – not “good” or “bad” – to achieve…. To be “someone”. To do “something”. And so, we have goals. We chase after those things. When does the chasing stop? I’ve been journeying with God for the better part of three decades of my life. And I have never had a concrete idea of what I was to achieve…. Who I was to be. What I was to do. I’m the lunch lady…. And even a stint as a youth pastor. The winds of change.

8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. Somewhere over the rainbow. In bit o' growth. The last few days…weeks…. I shake my head. I don’t know what to think, to feel. All the while, this tension builds inside of me. So, here, using this platform,. Is where I have chosen to process. Where to start…. I am a Christ-follower. I am an American. As I witness the events and the backlash that has resulted from those events. I am wondering if those two things can live in harmony? Way up high,.

8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. In bit o' growth. Patterned, openwork fabric…. Does this describe you? Or maybe fragile…. I would not choose the word “lacy” to describe anything about myself…. Some lovely young ladies with whom I work and I spent some time together a couple of days ago. Having “all the jokes”…. And being creative as well. Jokingly, the conversation evolved into the four of us actually being one person…Lacey. Each of us bringing our own personality to the table.

8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. A night at the museum. In bit o' growth. I grew up in a museum. Things were displayed everywhere…. Displayed with thought and care. And with intent…. But as a kid growing up, I learned to not touch anything…. It’s almost as if there were “ropes” surrounding every little nook in our home. 8230;don’t touch. 8230;these are to look at, not touch. Now, I tend to enter into people’s homes. And not touch anything…. Not even look at their stuff…. Maybe I l...

waiting to exhale | bitsofbetsy

https://bitsofbetsy.wordpress.com/2015/02/11/waiting-to-exhale

8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. In bit o' growth. Have you ever not really known you weren’t breathing properly. That you just kept inhaling. But never really letting it all out? I witnessed an epic exhale 2 days ago. Knowing that birthing your own child is not a possibility…. Deciding as a family to foster with the hope to adopt…. The invasion of privacy. The lack of anonymity. The thought of “one day”. The prayers that seemingly stood frozen in time…. A baby is yours. You are c...

8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. Faith, reality, hope and anxiety. In bit o' growth. It has been months since I have written, and my thoughts are as random as ever…enjoy the ride). 8220;Risk, then, is not just part of life. It is life. The place between your comfort zone and your dream is where life takes place. It’s the high-anxiety zone, but it’s also where you discover. Who you are.”. Books strewn on the floor. Case vignettes to dissect. Treatment plans to ponder. Ever wonder i...

8230;growing in grace. A life-long journey of discovery. In bit o' growth. I woke up this morning thinking, “well, that really happened”. So here we are. Some feeling absolutely terrific. I’m grieving…. Not because one candidate didn’t get elected. Or because the other did. Grieving because our nation, this great nation, is divided….polarized. What took place during the past few months was our freedom at work. Our liberty with feet and legs. And vocal cords and mouths. But it was freedom, nonetheless.
