Why Grace

Since this is my very first blog post I thought I would talk about why I chose "Grace in the midst of Chaos" as the title for my blog. You see I am a minister's wife for almost 10 years now, a stay at home mom to two very active boys, and the daughter of a King. I'm just trying to be a good steward of what God has blessed me with. If I had been told years ago that I would be married to a minister, I'm pretty sure I would have laughed in the face of the one who told me so. Here I am years later, married to a minister, very involved in the church where my family attends and a mother to the very two individuals that can melt my heart with their smiles.

With that being said here is why I chose my title:  You see life is crazy, it's unfair and let's face it down right HARD and overwhelming.  I am a daughter of a King, yes, My Jesus saved me and I will someday inherit his heavenly kingdom. I am a wife to someone who is in the ministry, and you know what? Even though I am a daughter of a King, that takes hard work to keep going! Furthermore, I am a stay at home mom, which in itself has many many challenges. But let's add one more thing to this perfect mess. My youngest son Isaiah has Super powers! I'm not talking about him being Clark one minute and then Superman the next, nope he has a super power of a different kind. Isaiah was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy last September, and at some point  I will probably go into greater detail on that, but not today.  

You see, I'm not going to claim that I know it all, or can even do it all because I can't. What I do know is that my father's plans for me are far greater than what I can imagine or even see at this point. I fail every single day, in probably everything I do, but God gives Grace for our failures, weaknesses and even in our sin. So with my life seeming to feel like it is always in a state of chaos God is there granting Grace when I feel I have failed him. Grace in the Midst of Chaos, my chaos, our chaos. 

This blog is dedicated to my boys, Ian, Stephen, Isaiah and to all those out there who are holing on so tightly to the promises of God, of one day inheriting his Heavenly kingdom! I hope you will join me on this journey of live, love, and most importantly Grace.
