On my phone, the word grace autocorrects to capital-G Grace. I don’t know if that’s standard or if it’s because we have a niece whose name is Grace, so I manually changed it enough to make it automatic. In any case, every time I send a text or write a comment using my phone, grace is changed to Grace.
I’d noticed this change but had never really thought about it until the past few days. This week, Grace has been tough. From various communication breaks between friends and coworkers, I’ve been way more judgey and way less grace-full.
And then I really noticed the capital G. I’ve tried to be more cognizant of Grace this year. Some days it’s so easy and other days it’s just too difficult. On those difficult days – the ones I’ve chosen this word for – I need Grace with an important, capital G.
And so, with two days left in this week, I’m looking to turn around my judgement and try to use the lens of Grace.
How have you chosen Grace this week? Has autocorrect ever worked in your favor?
It is hard to do when you are in the middle of something big. Much easier to look through the Grace lens in hind sight. Just being aware of what you are feeling and doing is huge. Be gentle on yourself.
So true – hindsight is always best!
It’s great when the small things make us think and wind their way into our faith and thoughts and ever-present lives. I’m glad you noticed it and seems in the noticing God is speaking through it.
I’m trying to stop and notice those small things….. Getting there 😉
Sometimes a gentle nudge so what we need to remember the way we would like to be.
I’m always amazed at the random places that nudge comes from!
