Week four , chapter three Grace Works.
Question 2. Page 58-59 We have a chart to fill out. (One good idea to buy the book!) I will just share what I got out of doing the chart.
Sometimes people scoff at taking the time to do simple things , such as this chart. However, I know any better way to get to the thoughts that are behind the actions and emotions we feel. When you write it out, this is what I trusted/believed.....This is what my actions were. Then , this is what I believe/trust now that I am in the Room of Grace, this is what my actions are.
It really helps. In fact it was exactly the help I needed today, to help me see that it is a habit to go back to the Room of Good Intentions. Just like breaking any habit , it may not come naturally, I may have to make a conscious effort to believe what God says about me, rather than rely on what others say about me. A good habit to change ! And very freeing. God sees me as His creation, His clay. He certainly is not going to be down on the unfinished product !
