Encouragement
Grace is...
a big, fluffy bath towel that fits around you no matter how big you are
is....
the carpool lane in the traffic of life
is...
the store that stays open 24 hours
is...
ice cream - melts and flows into all the empty spaces
is...
a sunny smile planeted in a sad, stormy heart
is... true love
is...
fat free potato chips
is...
a hand extended even when pride won't ask for help
is...
packets of ketchup way back in the drawer when the bottle is empty
is...
the car that finally lets you in the turn lane
is...
the kind, old lady who introduces herself to your friend when she realizes that you've forgotten her name
is...
a place in your favorite dream
is...
a forgiving child
is...
a security blanket
is...
the net below the tight rope
is...
the wind in my sail, beneath my wings and at my back
is...
tissue paper on the counter when the roll is empty
is...
the traffic light that stays red just long enough to remember which way to turn
is...
hope when I'm hopeless,
help when I am helpless,
faith when I am faithless,
God, when I am fatherless,
is...
music soft and sweet when the silence is too much to bear
is...
a familiar face in a crowd of strangers
is...
the "right" word
is...
the crowbar that frees me from between the rock and the hard place
is...
the light at the end of it, and the tunnel too.
Prays
when my heart is too heavy to lift the words
is...
daylight savings time
is...
my oh, so soft pillow at the end of a hard day
is...
the friend who is still my friend when I haven't called for way too long
is...
a $20.00 bill crumpled up in the coat pocket that I haven't worn for 4 months
Laughs
at my bad jokes and allows me to laugh at yours,
is...

Grace to Me, gives that great feeling I get when I drive and listen to the radio. Thanks for letting it end with us still thinking. Your writing is great! Thanks
Donna, what marvellous thoughts! I particularly liked that one about the $20 bill found in the coat pocket. I also loved the way you left it open at the end so that the reader was left thinking of some personal ones to add. Delightful from start to finish. With love, Deb
Donna, this is sweet. I like "the carpool lane in the traffic of life" and "the tissue on the counter when the roll is empty" (Also, small typo: it's 'crowbar.') ~ Violet
