Five Minute Friday- This is My Story

Yes (the font is wonky)

No (I'm not going to fix it)

--------------------------------

This is my story...

sometimes you are born into a home

sometimes you stumble into one

before this school year began

my incoming HS Freshman

made the Freshman Volleyball team

and

I was relieved

that she had found a home

a few weeks later

we arrived at the regional tournament excited

quickly pulled into a parking space

and began unloading the car when

I saw it...

one hundred days of grace

and heard...

what will you do with

the next one hundred? 

Sometimes it's more than just a parking spot...

I snapped this photo and when later I counted ahead

and found that Day 100 marked the new year

I felt a renewed sense of purpose

and THEN...

when I saw the invitation for this year's 

31 Days of 5 min free writing challenge

Grace Showed Up

and I was excited to have

(again) found a home!

And I am grateful for this

amazing writing community

because

sometimes you are born into a home

sometimes you stumble into one

and my prayer is that we never grow weary

of telling

of sharing

His Story of Grace

this...

is my story
