Nåd (God's Grace)

After quite a hiatus, I have decided to start blogging again. My hope is to give a little update at least once a week.
This week so far has been a lesson in Grace. The topic has been on my mind quite a bit and I have been experiencing it in different ways.
One of my friends who has been through some tough things in the last few years, received some news this week which indicated that this tough time was not yet over. For them it may not feel good but they are able to look back at God's Grace through the tough times of the last few years.  What a good reminder for me, for all of us.
On Sunday while getting ready to do music worship, we had all sorts of set backs: Guitars that wouldn't work properly, a violin that was having issues and other items that had been left at home and needed to be feched. Throughout it all we were able to keep our heads and experience peace, which led to things working out better than I had planned. Grace.

This week in the office, even though I have felt quite unmotivated, things have gone forward and I feel more inspired than when I started.
What am I working on this week?
Well, how do I help my people do their work more effectively? One thing that I am focussing on this week is how I follow up on our meetings. To make the meetings more effective, my accountability of them needs to be better.

On a personal note, this week I have started physical training again after a break due to travel and illness.
What are you up to this week?
