Word of the Year- Grace

My "word" of 2014 is decidedly grace.  Stephanie challenged me to pick one word to live by this year.  At first I really struggled on choosing one.  The dictionary is so large after all!  I love a strong vocabulary because it makes everyone who speaks it seem so intelligent.  So I was really questioning what word I would pick.
Would I go with a word that no one knew the meaning of yet was really insightful?  Would I pick one like "happy," or "peace?"

I knew there were so many words to go through, so I just now decided on what that seems fit: grace.

I believe that grace is an important word to live by.  Not only does it mean (to me, anyways) to spread peace and love wherever you go, but I also think that it means to have the proper amount of humility and forgiveness.  If you live your life with grace, you'll live a life to be remembered.  

I'm going to try with all my might to live with grace this year.  In my opinion, 2013 was a year of stress and haste, with only a few cherished moments.

If 2014 is lived through with grace, then I believe that it will be an absolutely lovely year, no matter what my struggles are.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall profess, within the vail,
A life of joy and peace.

-Amazing Grace

Until next time xxx.
