Doing The Next Right Thing and The GraceLaced Mondays Link Up

Welcome to GraceLaced Mondays, a link up dedicated to sharing any and all blog posts by like-minded lovers of grace–God’s grace! Grace is found in the everyday when you are intentional about taking note of it…and I invite you to share your story, great or small, of how everyday moments are full of Grace.

It is found in the sink full of dishes awaiting you after a family meal, it shines in the faces of your imperfect children, it soothes from the pages of God’s Word, and it is tucked into the enjoyment of a fresh batch of cookies. Grace is in a beautiful moment and a heartbreaking one alike. Grace is blessing beyond what you and I deserve.

Do you feel like you are so behind on so many tasks and projects that you can’t figure out what to do first? A junk drawer needing to be cleaned out? Closets that need organizing? I am so feeling that way these days! Kara from The Chuppies shared last week about seeking the Lord in doing the next right thing, and following His lead one step at a time.

His next right thing will be…
Reading with the kiddos.
Or calling a hurting friend.
Or making time to engage the cashier at the market.
Or listening to a long…long…LONG story about Someone’s day at school.

And today I am thankful for the reminder.
The reminder that I cannot avoid because of this stage of life.
That my best choice is to ask Him.
And then do–
The next right thing He’s planned for today.
