grace

work has been dragging even more for me lately. i don't know what it is... mrs. m said it's "moving-away-itis." honestly i think i consider myself "too good" for my job sometimes. though lately it has just been real frustration with my student.

i get in these moods where i'm so ticked off with him it's hard to move away from it, and especially hard to pray through it. i'm annoyed/frustrated/upset, and i just want to stay that way. i don't even want to be happy or focus on God's grace to me, i want to focus on my negative emotion. the only thing i can do in that moment is ask others to pray for me because i can't/won't do it myself, and pray for myself after those times.

i also realized how beautiful it is when we share our crap with each other. i compare myself to others always, and it makes it that much easier when i realize how we all sin and are all covered by grace. not saying that my sins/junk are ok, but it's also good to share it with others and help build up one another. it's not easy to admit my faults.

but...there is enough grace in Christ to cover you when you forget about grace. there is enough grace in Christ to cover you when you remember about grace and don't care.
