When I wrote several days ago, asking to be a good student as I travel this path and truly have God "Teach me thy way" I was not expecting the events that followed.
As I have written before, I have good days and bad days and some that I would rather forget.
Well it seems that since that last post, my days have been kinda rough. I have had some falls, some episodes that seem to last all day, unable to walk or talk for hours.
As I was recapping my days with someone on Sunday and describing that I was trying to suffer well and look for moments of God's grace in my life, how I could be a better wife and mother, their comment was that you may have just had a "thimble full of grace" and you were wanting more.
That really struck me. It is true, I am always expecting more, more from my boys, more from myself when sometimes just that thimble full of grace will sustain me, and that is all I need.
May I recognize that thimble and fall of the grace God is giving me. Sometimes a thimble is all I need, and that I am thankful for.
Teach me Thy way, O Lord, teach me Thy way!
Thy guiding grace afford, teach me Thy way!
Help me to walk aright, more by faith, less by sight;
Lead me with heav'nly light, teach me Thy way!
May God's grace always lead me as I travel this road.
