Reflections of faith, hope, and everyday grace, written from the heart.

Welcome

Life has a way of reshaping us, sometimes through loss, sometimes through love, and often through the quiet moments in between.
Here, I share reflections from the heart, stories of faith, hope, and healing. As I learn to walk this new chapter with grace, gratitude, and a steady trust in God’s goodness.
May you find comfort, connection, and a little light for your own journey along the way.

Walking by Faith, Writing My Way Forward

Hi, I’m Marie, a kind-hearted, compassionate woman learning to walk gracefully through this new chapter of life.

Now, as a widow, I no longer have a true companion to share my days with, but I’ve found comfort in leaning on my keyboard and computer screen, sharing pieces of life, laughter, and faith straight from the heart.

A new friend recently said, “Putting emotions into words can transform pain into perspective.”  Thank you, Rakesh, you are spot on!

In this season, I’ve come to treasure the simple joys that whisper of God’s goodness, the warmth of sunshine on my face, a soft breeze through an open window, and the laughter that reminds me my heart still knows how to dance.

My faith keeps me steady, and my family and friends remain the heartbeat of my world.

Through writing, I’m learning that connection comes in many forms, in shared stories, kind words, and the quiet understanding that reminds us we’re never really alone.

And while I don’t know what tomorrow holds, I believe love, in all its forms, has a way of finding us again, right when our hearts are ready to receive it.

So here I am, walking by faith, holding onto hope, and writing my way toward whatever beautiful chapters are still to come.

Because stepping into something new has a way of opening doors we didn’t even know existed. It nurtures resilience, grows confidence, and deepens our understanding of ourselves, gently reminding us that even life’s challenges can carry lessons, blessings, and God’s quiet guidance.

Each day is a chance to embrace growth, to keep learning, and to let our hearts stay open, to love, to change, and to the grace that meets us right where we are.

With grace and gratitude,
Marie

About Grace Notes

Grace Notes was born from a simple truth, that even in the hardest seasons, there are still soft places where grace shows up. Through words and reflections, I share the lessons, laughter, and little miracles that remind me God is present in it all.
