Naturally Supernatural Grace
Made in the image of God
“And God created man to his own image: to the image of God He created them. And God blessed them, saying: increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and all living creatures that move upon the earth.” ~Genesis 1:26-28
Welcome!
For most of my life, I felt like the smallest and weakest one in the room. I was the youngest of seven, and that feeling followed me for decades. So it still surprises me that God the Father has let me watch Him do things I can’t explain.
I’ve asked Him to stop the rain, and He did. I’ve spoken to His creatures in His name and watched them respond. I’ve seen Him provide, again and again, when I had nothing left to give.
None of it was because I’m special. It’s because He is a good Father, and He has never taken back the dominion He gave His children in the beginning. He wants to walk with each of us through our ordinary days, the way He walked with Adam in the cool of the evening. When we live in His presence moment by moment, the supernatural starts to feel natural.
That’s what this site is about: living naturally supernatural.
I’ve gathered thirteen of these stories into my first book, Naturally Supernatural Grace: 13 True Stories of Answered Prayer and God-Given Authority. [Link to the book once it’s live]
Look around, read the blog, and sign up for my email list to hear first about new books and free prayer resources. And if you need prayer, I’d be honored to pray for you.
In the meantime, please, enjoy the blog.
Blessings, Grace
