Grace in the “I Don’t Know”

Posted on March 12, 2021Comments Off on Grace in the “I Don’t Know”

And the theme of March will be grace. Grace upon grace. 

grace [ greys ] 
noun
A manifestation of favor; a pleasing or attractive quality.

There is such grace in “I don’t know.” I used to have this bad habit of wanting to say the right thing, or sound smart, or have the answer or get the gold star even when I didn’t *really know* what I actually thought or knew. I’d often share something (which still had value of course) but it was not fully considered. Not fully intentional. Not fully rendered.

Turns out, I am wiser when I say, “I don’t know. Please help me understand.”

Do I Have it Right? :: 3/12/18 :: Post 188

There is much that is making me sad tonight. 

So much hurt in the world. So much selfishness. So much personal agenda at the expense of the well-being of others. 

Perpetuated ugliness. 

Cancer has revealed to me what is important and what is not. And I pray I have it right. 

Lord, that this isn’t wasted………..


The Pendulum Swings :: 3/12/19 :: Post 546

The further I get from surgery, the worse things are looking…..

Man is it hard to constantly manage disappointment. And hopefulness. And the swinging of the pendulum. 

Exhausting.
