Inspiration of Grace
Inspiration of Grace is available to you every minute of every day. As you go through the day it is easy to get caught up in the fast pace and numerous projects and forget to pay attention to what is happening around you. When you can really see life unfolding you will notice pieces of Grace in almost everyone and every thing you look at.
If you see someone get beyond the demanding short tempered patient/client and care for them with a genuine smile and (grace) you will be inspired to model that behavior. If a piece of equipment is reliably unreliable but works when you need it you will know Grace has intervened and your day suddenly looks brighter. Grace is divine intervention, the opening to possibility rather than doubt. It is the acknowledgment of powers beyond your control and then allowing that fact to settle and become part of your every day life. I think the taking on of Grace is what you see in successful people who are truly at peace. Those who are calm and level headed. They have become a conduit for Grace and are no longer trying to work through life alone. Consider them to be Inspirations of Grace. My greatest inspirations comes from the bald eagle. They embody the "Inspiration of Grace" for me. You can read how this happened on the

Whether rising from a garbage dump or from its home in a majestic evergreen the eagle flies with power, beauty, and "grace." Grace is a state of mind and spirit that shows in every action. Grace is about self esteem. It is about knowing no matter what that you are meant for greatness. A greatness that is not defined by society. It is the greatness of being whole. The eagle, whether it is with its mate or alone, flies and hunts with the same grace. It is aware of everything around him and yet is focused on his goal. His goal appears to be so much more than survival. He flies as if he can see further than today. As if from his perspective he knows where he is heading and the destination will complete his goal. Therefore, the day to day tasks that make up survival and procreation of his species are not drudgery and are not done out of commitment. Life is turned into joy and grace becomes part of its spirit. That's why they represent the inspiration of grace for me.
My big brother lived that way. He only lived to be 21, but in that short time he showed me it was possible to live beyond worldly constraints. He was one of those kids that didn't fit in real well. He was very intelligent. He was born with unusual feet that made him walk funny, he had multiple allergies so he had to eat differently, and to top it off he wasn't great with kids his own age.Despite all of that, he carried himself with dignity. He never had an angry outburst, and never spoke a bad word about anybody. He is still one of my inspirations. The point is that his goal was never of this world. He always had his eye on what lay after this life. When he was disappointed in life he would retreat to his room, refocus and return renewed. Inspiration of Grace.

Work towards living like that. Make that your goal. Know that the pettiness of everyday life holds no real meaning. Knowing that you are destined for greatness and that beyond this world lies a life so much more spiritually fulfilling that it must be your ultimate goal. Striving toward a life of grace requires practice every day. Try to focus on the good and positive things in life. Write about the things you learn in your journal so they become a part of your consciousness. You will notice that the more good and positive things you look for, the more you are surrounded by good and positive people and experiences. Once filled with a good and positive life look beyond the here and now and you will begin to represent the fulfillment of the inspiration of grace. Click here
