This group came up with so many ways to fight for grace, I separated out the verses and songs to a second blog. I know this will be a post that I’ll return to for these encouraging words of God’s grace. Thank you for contributing these ideas!

I know many of you know the story of Kara's grace dress. But most don’t know that I also have a grace dress—and necklace—story.

Last year, I needed to get author headshots done. I’m not the best in front of a camera, but I was excited to have my favorite Jen Lints snap some pics and get to hang with my friend in the process. Kara and I both loved green. We had similar green eyes, so maybe that’s why, but it’s always a go-to color me. I shopped online for a dress for photos and found a green one I loved. It arrived and it actually fit. I couldn’t believe it. I was ahead of schedule and not rushing around at the last minute. I should have known something seemed fishy about the whole scenario, but alas, I was oblivious.
