		<title>Broken Cisterns</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever noticed a period of time when every Bible study, every sermon, every life experience seems to revolve around the same theme?  It&#8217;s as if God tosses subtlety aside and very clearly says, &#8220;I want you to learn this!&#8221;  This has been happening to me lately.  And the message I&#8217;m getting loud and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=178&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Why I&#8217;m not blogging much</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I find myself living on a runaway train these days.  I was on this runaway train right after Sarah Kate was born have jumped back on since school started.  Everything is a blur of diapers, meals, kissing boo-boos, settling toy disputes, carpool, overseeing various educational pursuits, paying the electric bill and sweeping the kitchen floor, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=175&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>How Deep the Father&#8217;s Love</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This summer I studied the attributes of God with a wonderful group of women using &#8220;Behold Your God&#8221; by Myrna Alexander.  (I highly, highly recommend this study.)  It amazes me how God ordained the events of the summer of 2009 for me and for my family, and He knew exactly what I would need to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=171&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>A New Life Verse</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think I have found my &#8220;Life Verse.&#8221;  I&#8217;ve never had a life verse before, but I know people who do.  The verses are usually very inspirational, something along the lines of reaching the nations or future generations for God.  Good stuff, really.  My favorite verse thus far is Romans 8:1, but it didn&#8217;t seem [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=167&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Adventures in Couponing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several months ago, my husband started expressing his desire for us to start spending less and saving more.  (This may or may not have coincided with a certain Democrat being elected president and vowing to &#8220;reform&#8221; health care.  But that is another story for another blog.)  He has repeated this preposterous suggestion many, many times.  [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=159&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Unthankfulness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do you know how many times my children have opened their dresser drawers and exclaimed, &#8220;Clean clothes!  Washed, dried, folded and put in my drawer!  Way to go, Mom!  Thank you!&#8221;
Zero.  Usually, all I hear is, &#8220;When are you going to wash my Transformer pj&#8217;s?&#8221;  Sound familiar?
When I read Jerry Bridge&#8217;s chapter on Unthankfulness (see [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=155&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Being Mindful of God</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our Sunday school class is studying &#8220;Respectable Sins&#8221; by Jerry Bridges.  I highly recommend it.  His basic premise is that, as Christians, we condemn &#8220;big sins&#8221; such as adultery or abortion, but we tolerate certain &#8220;respectable sins&#8221; in our own lives, such as worry, gossip, discontentment, pride, worldliness, etc.
The first so-called respectable sin Bridges discusses [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=150&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>A Mother of Three</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow, it has been a really long time since I&#8217;ve posted to this blog!  If anyone out there is still reading, thanks for sticking with me.  For any of you who don&#8217;t know me personally, I&#8217;m happy to announce that my daughter, Sarah Kate, was born on April 27.  She is healthy, a great sleeper, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=147&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Climbing Rainbows</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our sermon last Sunday was on Genesis 9, in which God makes a covenant with Noah after the flood.  Our pastor pointed out that the rainbow was not a sign for Noah to remember God&#8217;s promise.  Rather, it was a sign for God to remember His promise:  &#8220;When I bring the clouds over the earth [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=139&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>My Complaining Heart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Israelites are at it again.  Grumbling, that is.  A recurring theme in our BSF study of the Life of Moses this year is how the Israelites continue to grumble and complain in spite of all the wonderful things God has done for them.  Last week, we studied Numbers 11, in which the Israelites once [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=solagratia2.wordpress.com&blog=1231440&post=136&subd=solagratia2&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
