Grace in Small Things: Part 21 of 365

Categories

1. Lavender incense sticks

2. Levi donning his red knit hat all day long. Through both nap time and now curled up in bed for the night.

3. Being physically incapacitated by Matthew’s personal trainer in a painful, but oh-so-good-and-needed way.

4. Sunshine.

5. Sitting alone in the sauna for 30 whole minutes. Silence is a luxurious thing that I will never again take for granted.

Wage a battle against embitterment and take part in 365 days of Grace in Small Things

I am Amy Smith

Amy Smith and Family including Matthew, Brighton, and Levi

I’m a mother of two minismiths (with the third having beat us all to heaven, lucky duck), wife to Matthew, crazy-loved daughter of the King, and fervent believer in the healing power of bluegrass music.

As healing and growth has blown the lid off 2009 for our family, we stand amazed at the overwhelming love of our Father and his sweaty diligence in sawing away the dead branches this year. It was messy, trust me.

2010 has continued to press us hard into Jesus as an unexpected pregnancy put a halt on our adoption plans, leaving us overjoyed with anticipation for minismith #3. Only to find out Jesus had called her back to Himself 9 weeks later.

We now stand with our hands open, asking Him to fill our aching hearts with Himself and lead us on through this season of healing.
