Hmm

     I guess it is time to make my own blog. I love to write so why not write in cyberspace. Today is July 28th and it is hot in St. Louis. I can't believe it is 103, that is too hot. It makes me feel like St. Louis is sick with the flu and running a high temp and needs to take an aspirin. So the title of my blog should probably be explained. I feel like my life has been a walk in grace. As long as I can remember God has been a part of my life. I remember when I was nine I started my grace walk and have been walking ever since.
     What exactly is grace? I really like the definition that grace is getting what you don't deserve and mercy is not getting what you do. Thinking that we deserve nothing makes our blessings that much better. "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. " Romans 5:8 
See what I mean,we don't deserve anything yet Christ gave us everything. I had always kind of played around with the idea of keeping a gratitude journal. I think I may use this blog for that as well as for my musings.
     Things I am thankful for today: my family, air conditioning, the time to be able to create this blog.
