Marvelous Grace!

One day a teacher wrote on the blackboard:

9 x 1 = 09
9 x 2 = 18
9 x 3 = 27
9 x 4 = 36
9 x 5 = 45
9 x 6 = 54
9 x 7 = 63
9 x 8 = 72
9 x 9 = 81
9 x 10 = 91

One student spoke up because the last answer was wrong and then the other students laughed 😂 at him. The correct answer for 9 x 10 is 90.

He waited for everyone to quieten down and said:

“Even though I had correctly answered 9 out of 10, no one congratulated me, but when I got one wrong, everyone started laughing; it means that even if a person is very successful, society will notice his smallest mistake and they will enjoy it.

So don't let criticism destroy your dreams, the only person who never makes a mistake is the one who doesn't do anything."

Don’t be afraid to make mistakes!!!! It means you tried;-)

Sharing in case someone besides me needs the reminder too.

Me: Hey God.
God: Hello.....
Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together?
God: I would rather not.
Me: Why?
God: Because you aren't a puzzle.
Me: What about all of the pieces of my life that are falling down onto the ground?
God: Let them stay there for a while. They fell off for a reason. Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back.
Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down!
God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go.
Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me?
God: Only the very best pieces of you.
Me: I'm scared of changing.
God: I keep telling you - YOU AREN'T CHANGING!! YOU ARE BECOMING!
Me: Becoming who?
God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided to adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! ... Become! Become! Become who I made you to be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it.
Me: There goes another piece.
God: Yep. Let it be.
Me: So ... I'm not broken?
God: Of course Not! - but you are breaking like the dawn. It's a new day. Become!!!

Many of you have seen my health battles over the years. I have struggled with weight gain, fibromyalgia, high blood pressure and much more. Over 5 yrs ago I joined a group called Revelation Wellness. Last year I became a Revelation Wellness instructor. My battle with Covid last fall really set me back. BUT...I am now ready to do this thing that God has equipped me to do! I will be teaching small group studies, doing one day meet ups, posting videos and blogs to help motivate you to Love God, Love yourself and Love others.
