Grace

Day 4. 

I'm thankful for grace.  God's grace is amazing. I had an encounter with the ex tonight that I didn't handle with the grace that I should have, for various reasons.  But God understands...and forgives my over reactions and sarcasm and hate and bitterness that creeps in.  And I am beyond thankful for that.

I'm also thankfulfor the growth I've experienced in the last year. Had the encounter tonight happened even a year ago...it would have been a completely different situation.  I wouldn't have kept my cool at all, and it would have resulted in a huge fight (a fight that would have been justified...but not a fight that would have taken the appropriate avenue or had a god outcome).  And because of that same growth I was able to move on from my anger at a much faster rate than I have in the past.  Thanks God.
