Curried Chicken with Ginger & Yogurt (Slow Cooker)

I do not at all understand the mystery of grace — only that it meets us where we are,

but does not leave us where it found us.

~ Anne Lamott

Few words today, friends. But, a yummy recipe.

Today, I’m grateful for the crockpot. For the ability to add a few ingredients to the trusted ceramic dish, press a button, and 8 hours later have a warm supper on the table. Husband is traveling, I need a spread sheet to map the six events the Littles and I will attend between 5:00 – 8:00 pm tonight, and I’m leaving town again, too. {p.s. I don’t even know how to use Excel}

I’m heading to Nebraska to the Jumping Tandem Retreat. This year’s conference, hosted by the incredible Deidra Riggs, is on Grace. In my session, Grace at the Table, I’ll be sharing a bit of my story — how I was once excluded from a very important table — The Lord’s Table, of all places. It’s no whim that God gave me a table. It’s a story of his great grace.

I would love your prayers as I travel and speak. Especially for Husband and the Littles — who at least pretend I’ll be missed.

The turquoise table adventures continue! As grateful as I am for my crockpot today, I’m even more grateful for YOU. Thank you for sharing in the adventure — at your own tables and in our growing community.
