Difficult Grace

After publishing my last post I took a look at my draft posts I had started; it had been a LONG time since I had posted anything. I found this short one I had written in December of 2020. Three years later now, this is quite applicable considering my recent post The Punch of Self-Righteousness. More to ponder here. Grateful for His love and grace towards my sinful self-righteousness and may he empower me to do the same!

From December 2020: This grace thing is difficult simply put. While I am trying to grow as a leader, and challenging myself to be a man who leads, to lead courageously I am discovering the critical spirit that wells up within me.

  • How could he/she forget that?
  • What was he/she thinking?
  • Isn’t that obvious?
  • Why can’t they ….

As I consider those four prompts above — hmm. Do you suppose God is thinking those same things about me? Honestly, a most definite yes!
