You are so fun and relevant. "Grace is the exception to every rule" so well put. Your kids won't only grow up knowing the right thing to do, but they will grow up living in the power of God because you haven't taught them religion. You have taught them about the relationship God extends to each of us. His grace is the difference that changes us form the inside out rather than becoming the "white washed walls" which look great on the outside and are weak underneath. I LOVE you!!!!

This post is very fitting for me today as I've been trying to teach my boys about showing grace to each other and what that looks like. Great insight from you as always! Maybe I should start running. :) I love the way you write Marsia!

Such truth, said so beautifully. As a home school mom who gave birth to #5 last year and moved one month later, GRACE was my anthem all last year! I've heard it many times, it always touches me deeply, but in 2009 it seems like it really stuck for good. I can't take a single breath without it, and I no longer wish I could. As I have accepted walking by grace with open arms, it is revolutionizing every area of my life in ways I never imagined. Thank you for the confirmation and encouragement, knowing I'm not the only one. Wow! Such truth, said so beautifully.

This line made me smile! Made me wish I had a January birthday or know someone with one. :) But I think, in a "sweet" kind of way, it put grace, real grace, in perspective. Religion is the worst root available to squeeze out God's grace. If someone can eat chocolate cake for their birthday even though they're fasting, they understand grace. Chocolate cake and grace. Although there was so much more content to your blog, I think this is the nugget I will take away because anyone can understand the simplicity of this statement. “Grace is the piece of chocolate cake that every friend celebrating her birthday in January eats without guilt during a church-wide fast.”

I LOVE that! Grace really is amazing--it changes everything. Your life is a beautiful example of grace. I'm so glad you are my neighbor (note the spelling...it's one of the i before e exceptions...haha). Thanks for illustrating grace from your practical everyday life. Love you, friend (not an i before e exception...). “Grace is the noun that operates like a verb.” I LOVE that! Grace really is amazing–it changes everything.

I'm first ; ) Is it really bad that when my son needs help with vocabulary or math I excuse myself and run to the computer to google the answer? LOL!

Praise God He gives us an abundance! Thanks for sharing the Truth God gave you while you were running! I know understand why you skipped dinner to go for a run!! ; ) Love you Marsia! JESS Woo Hoo!!!
