Raining Grace by Sally Metzger on sallymetzger.com

Raining Grace – Introduction to My Blog

Today, be aware. God's Life floods your heart. It's always Raining Grace. "Do the thing and you will have the power" (Ralph Waldo Emerson). It's a quote I try to live by. I believe we all have incredible resources. The Master of the universe has decided to take up residence within us. If that weren't enough, In Him we live and move and have our being (Acts 17:28). We are swimming in grace! As a longtime spiritual director and a chaplain for all faiths, I’ve witnessed firsthand the workings of grace. It rains abundantly. (Sometimes I wear a waterproof parka and can’t feel a drop. But divine grace awaits my awakening to it.) Hopefully, some of these reflections will encourage you to access more and more the grace God offers. If you'd like entries sent to your inbox, click here. May something you read help you remember what you've always known and live the truth within you.

| ​The Power of Acceptance | Few practices provide more spiritual growth, freedom, or inner peace than acceptance. When our boat has capsized and broken into pieces, there is little point in struggling against the rapids. Better to go with the flow until another...

Twilight Zone (Or Lost)

I was five years old, squirming in my chair. My haircut successfully completed, I was waiting for my mom’s hair to be finished. “Honey, do you want to walk home all by yourself?” Today Mom’s hairdresser would call Child Services, but we lived in a small town, it was a...

When We Don’t Make the Grade

When We Don’t Make the Grade

It was my last class of the week—my first week as a teacher. “Ms. Metzger, you made a mistake when you totaled my score on the quiz. I earned an 87, not a 92,” the student said. “Wow! How honest you are. I’ll fix it.” The student’s eyes widened. “You’re not supposed...
