Words of Everyday Grace
To Know Him, is to love Him and hear his voice
Welcome, to Words of Everyday Grace, my personal blog. My name is Lisa. I'm Catholic, married and mother of two . My prayer is that those that God leads here, will be touched by His unending grace. A few years ago I became very sick. If it wasn't for God giving me everyday grace through words of scripture, the sacraments and whispers from the Holy Spirit, I wouldn't be here with a newfound faith, courage and joy! God led me to an intimate relationship of prayer and listening. Over time, I have shared some of my intimate words of grace with friends, family and in prayer groups. When I started seeing others were touched by these intimate words of everyday grace, I wanted to find a better way to share them. So here they are!

How do we know when God is speaking?
Listen to what your are hearing and decide if it is coming from you, God or satan. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you. When we fast and have a clean slate, after asking God for forgiveness, we can hear the Holy Spirit clearer. The more pure our soul is, the closer it is to God.
God: Satan:

moves your will moves your emotion
leads/guides pushes/hurries
reassures frightens
convicts, confronts, corrects condemns, accuses, shames
aligns with scripture/commandments contradicts/twists or puts a small spin on it
loves, unites hates, divides
encourages, gives peace and hope discourages, causes despair and hopelessness
for us against us
gives freedom enslaves or makes us powerless
