Grace — two chairs and a lantern on a moonlit dock, seen through open doors: enjoy the view with someone beside you, or alone — either way, give yourself permission to choose

Grace

Before you carry today back into the world, take a moment for Grace.

Today, I hope you will think about how the truth can hurt and yet feel good at the same time.

Strange, yes—but truth has a way of doing both.

I remember my mother saying to me:

“It is easy to lie when you refuse to look in the mirror. But God knows what the reflection is hiding. So when you finally decide to ask yourself, ‘Who am I fooling?’ the answer may be no one but yourself.”

Have a truly blessed day.

I am LeAnn. And remember… you asked.

Grace is LeAnn’s daily closing word — a quote, a scripture, or a thought of her own, read aloud in the one voice of Ask LeAnn — a voice made from LeAnn’s own. Every word is her own.

Past Letters — the vault. The standing sample is open; the days that follow open with a subscription.

One letter. One answer. One truth. Monday through Friday. — Ask LeAnn

My truth and my opinion do not have to be yours. The choice is always yours—and only you can give yourself permission to make it.
