May those who hope in you not be disgraced because of me, O Lord, the LORD Almighty; may those who seek you not be put to shame because of me.  Psalm 69:6

Thinking about ourselves first seems to be what is common to us naturally.  But what is natural to grace is a freedom in our emotions, our thinking and our desires that wants to inspire others.  The relaxing gift of grace changes what is common to us naturally so that we are now aware of the impact our words, out tones, our expressions and even our desires have on those who are around us.  No one is put to shame when attitudes of grace are heard and seen.  Today, rejoice knowing the impact you have on your family, your friends, your co-workers and even those who do not like you because of the power of our Lord’s grace in you.  Your attitude and actions can rekindle hope and bring about a joy that is absolutely renewing.  Let the life of his grace have its way in you and you will have an awesome day.  Enjoy!
