Most people know the race between the tortoise and the hare. Well, in this particular scenario, I'm the hare. Today, I've completed a marker on my way towards my goal - 12 Pilgrimage Stops. It may not be much for most, but it is grand for me!

Consider the postage stamp: its usefulness consists in the ability to
stick to one thing till it gets there. - Josh Billings

There are events in life that separate the weak from the strong. A combination faith and endurance are pushed to their limits. Although this sounds like one of the books of the bible, it is an ultra-marathon in modern day. Only a few survive this challenge - http://www.weather.com/news/badwater-ultramarathon-20120712

No trial has come to you but what is human. God is faithful and will not let you be tried beyond your strength; but with the trial he will also provide a way out, so that you may be able to bear it.
- 1 Corinthians 10:13

After I finished re-organizing my blog/website, I came across a website that is inspirational. It's devoted to a woman that I admire more than words can say, Mother Teresa. Here is the link http://www.ewtn.com/motherteresa/words.htm I know that I did not come across the it by chance but by divine help. I Thank God for His guidance. Pictured are two angels sent from heaven to teach us and guide us to Him. They were some of God's great gifts to his children.

God's Grace

For the past few days, I've been waking up with a prayer or religious song going through my mind. This feeling is both relaxing and enjoyable. There is a part of me that wonders why and the other part that says, "let it be". I've decided to go with the latter and welcome in the new. I shall pray that it continues on.

Instead of having a feeling of dreading the day, feeling overwhelmed or just going through the motions, I am embracing the day from the start. A gift from God, I do not doubt. His gifts are my blessings of grace. I believe that grace is absolutely necessary in my day-to-day activities.

Those who trust in him will understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are upon his elect, and he watches over his holy ones. - Wisdom 3:9 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God - Ephesians 2:8.
