# Testimonies of Grace ## Posts - [Carrying weight we weren't meant to bear](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/carrying-weight-we-werent-meant-to-bear/): Last Monday, I had a painful reminder of how fragile our physical bodies can be. I hurt my knee while working a shift at work, and the initial pain was intense. But as the days went on and I began the process of healing, I noticed something strange: other parts of my body started getting incredibly sore, too. My arms and feet were aching, and my calf muscles were completely tight. I had to sit down and really think about it before I realized what was happening. My arms and calves weren’t actually injured—they were just exhausted. Because my knee was […] - [The Lord of Hosts is in Your Corner](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/the-lord-of-hosts-is-in-your-corner/): I recently started a new job working at Hobby Lobby! It has been a lot of fun getting used to the flow of things, but I did run into a few structural problems right at the beginning. Some important paperwork that needed to be finalized wasn’t completed, and I also noticed I wasn’t getting the appropriate breaks I should have been getting. I remember arriving at work at 2:00 PM one afternoon and looking at the schedule, only to see that I was given a single 15-minute break during what would be an 8-hour shift. I instantly felt a wave of […] - [The Trap of Comparison](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/the-trap-of-comparison/): Scripture Focus: Galatians 1:10 & John 21:21-22 “For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.” — Galatians 1:10 A few weeks ago, I had the beautiful opportunity to attend a women’s conference. It was an incredible weekend, and it was so powerful to see God working through each and every woman there, including my mom. But if I’m being completely honest, somewhere in the back of my mind, a small inkling of fear crept in. I looked at the gifts, […] - [Quality over Quanity](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/quality-over-quanity/): Have you ever looked at your calendar, realized your day was completely packed, and felt a wave of guilt because you hadn’t opened your Bible yet? Or maybe your day wasn’t even busy, you just didn’t feel like opening your Bible or praying; I’ve been there myself. If we are being completely honest, we live in a world that thrives on busyness. We rush from school to work, to family obligations, to chores, and somewhere in between, we try to squeeze God into a five-minute window before we pass out asleep at night. We recite the Lord’s prayer before closing our […] - [The Kind of Forgiveness That Leaves You Grateful](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/the-kind-of-forgiveness-that-leaves-you-grateful/): When I first created the forgiveness category for this blog, I always imagined I’d use it to talk about the heavy, painful side of things. I thought I’d be writing about the struggle to forgive people who hurt us, how to heal, and how incredibly hard, yet necessary, forgiveness is. But as I sat down to reflect on my week, God completely shifted my heart. I don’t want to talk about how hard it is for us to forgive today. Instead, I want to talk about the overwhelming reality of God’s forgiveness for us. Blessings in the Midst of Imperfection To be completely transparent […] - [Resting in His Grace](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/resting-in-his-grace/): Jeremiah 1:4-10 The Calling of Jeremiah “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before though camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” Those are some powerful words to hear from the emouth of the Lord. It’s something so empowering and freeing when you know that God really does know you. And not only does He know you, but He has sanctified and ordained you. That means He has a plan, a purpose, and a specific reason for your very existence. But look at how Jeremiah responds […] - [Trusting God's Plan When You Can't See The Whole Page](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/trusting-gods-plan-when-you-cant-see-the-whole-page/): “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.” Martin Luther King Jr. Let’s be honest: when it comes down to the word “faith,” your mind usually goes to one of two different thoughts: fear or security. It all depends on exactly what we are putting our faith in. If we are choosing to trust in another human being, someone who can change just as quickly as the weather, then we may be in trouble. If we are trusting in ourselves, our own abilities, or our own provision, then at some point wether we want to […] - [The Beginning of Something Great](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/the-beginning-of-something-great/): For as long as I can remember, I have loved to write. There is something special about sitting down with a blank piece of paper or a laptop and finding the words to express what is happening deep inside the heart. I’m starting Testimonies of Grace simply because I want to use my love for writing to bless others. We live in a world that can sometimes feel incredibly loud, fast, and heavy. My hope is that this little corner of the internet can be a space for you to catch your breathe and be reminded that you have the Father […] ## Pages - [Subscribe!](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/subscribe/) - [The Sunday Letter](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/the-sunday-letter/): Missed a week?

If I had to give a quick description of myself, I would tell you that I am someone who loves quiet spaces, creating with my hands, and spending time with God. I’ve always felt a deep comfort in writing. For years it has been my way of processing life, understanding myself and what I’m feeling and also documenting the revelations that the Lord gives me. Recently, I felt a gentle pull to stop keeping those words tucked away in old notebooks and Google docs; to instead use them to bring […] - [Privacy Policy](https://testimoniesofgrace.com/privacy-policy/): Who we are Our website address is: http://testimoniesofgrace.com.
