  Yeah, a couple, you know, 24 hours ago, we did Mind and Spirit,
• 0:57
  and then here I am doing Grace Mile.
• 1:00
  Yeah, it's, you know, God works in mysterious ways. So, I guess we're in a series.
• 1:07
  And let's talk about it, right? I mean, you know, every day we walk a lot of miles.
• 1:13
  To work, to school, to pick up the kids, to face responsibilities and the unexpected
• 1:19
  challenges that life throws at us.
• 1:22
  But the most important walk we'll ever take isn't measured in steps.
• 1:28
  It's the walk we take with God. You see, grace isn't something we earn.
• 1:34
  It's something we receive.
• 1:36
  And it meets us exactly where we are, in our mistakes, our worries, and our triumphs.
• 1:43
  Grace isn't just what saves us it's what sustains us when i look back on my
• 1:51
  journey my own journey through heartbreaks uncertainty even seasons of doubt i can see how the grace,
• 2:00
  and that grace that i was walking beside me the whole time yeah grace was walking
• 2:05
  beside me the whole time there were times i thought i was completely lost.
• 2:11
  When I felt like I was crawling instead of walking.
• 2:15
  But grace, grace was holding me. It was holding me up.
• 2:19
  And I think about how many times we rush through life, praying for answers, asking why God and when.
• 2:28
  When God. And yet, in the silence, in those in-between moments,
• 2:34
  He's quietly guiding our steps.
• 2:36
  In second corinthians chapter
• 2:40
  12 verse 9 it says my grace is sufficient for
• 2:43
  you for my power is made perfect in
• 2:46
  weakness that verse hits home for me because
• 2:50
  in in our weakness moments when we
• 2:53
  have nothing left to give that god reminds
• 2:56
  us i've got you i've got you
• 2:59
  grace isn't loud
• 3:02
  it doesn't announce itself it
• 3:06
  whispers peace into the chaos it shows
• 3:10
  up in the hug you didn't expect in the sunrise after a long night and in one
• 3:17
  person in that one person who checked on you when you were when you needed it
• 3:24
  the most yeah i can say that about my parents.
• 3:29
  They knew. So as you walk about your day, as you walk with your own grace mile
