Hi guys!
This week's Monday Morning Mantra is from Aldra Robinson, winner of Real Simple Magazine's Life Lessons essay contest. Robinson reflects on her experience as a unit secretary in the intensive care unit of a hospital and witnessing the passing of a 15-year-old girl after a vessel ruptured in her head. The parents of this young woman donated her organs thus saving the lives of four other people. Here's what she learned from the experience:
"I realized that regardless of the heartache, we may choose the moments in which we live. On that day, I learned that love creates a tremendous capacity for grace. And perhaps it is that grace that keeps us moving forward."
-- Aldra Robinson

This week, think about the tragedies in your own life, and how those experiences have taught you lessons in grace.
