My new name.... how God showed me.

I have been thinking about this new name for my blog....    

This week has been one of the most difficult in a long time....

I was hiding out in the barn one morning.... everyone was asleep and I had my bible with me.

Just finished reading in Malachi.  I read through one book at a time.... 

I was thinking about where I should read next.  I flipped through and decided I would read Timothy.

 I Tim. 1:2~ To Timothy (Teena), my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

I know this may seem silly to some... but to me...  it was from God. I have been asking Him for grace... mercy... peace...  when He gives me grace and mercy... then peace comes.

act justly, love mercy, walk humbly.... with our God.

His mercy is new each morning.....


Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; listen to my plea for grace. Ps 86:6

Give ear to my prayer, O God, and hide not yourself from my plea for mercy! Ps. 55:2

May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. 2 Peter 1:2

GRACE, MERCY & PEACE


Grace~ Teena
Change the world one child at a time!
