A new approach. I hope you like it.

Sometimes, new is good. I hope you’ll overlook the fact that I am reposting. I wanted to see what this looked like. Maybe I’ll post something like this every end-of-month, so in case you didn’t read a post, they are all in one place.

So, what do you think?

Besides, trying something new is good, right? And considering it’s the end of the month, it works out well.

Plus, I like being able to see my posts this way as well. It’s been two months of reflection and sorting things out. Mental health, identifying the truly important, and relationships. Some pretty heady subjects. But what else is there to do in these two dark, cold months?

Now, I contend with this Afib diagnosis. I’m having a hard time adjusting to the medications. But I try to see things in perspective. It’s not terminal. It’s treatable. Perspective certainly helps. Besides, I’m an overcomer in Christ.

If faith doesn’t work during times of illness, when will it?

I hope you have a great weekend and blessings to each of you.

  • How cleaning out closets can be a wake-up call

    I had five items on my to-do list last week. Number three was: Clean out closets in spare bedroom. I managed to get 1, 2, 4, and 5 done but not number three. Maybe because it was the biggest job and the one I most dreaded. But a few days later, I tackled it. And,… Read more

  • The best way to know God. It’s not what you think.

    The best way to know God. It’s not what you think.

    The best way to know God is not what you think. Some of us think that being selfless will help us know God. Others think that: ____by tithing more we will know God better. ____by reading our Bible ____by praying ____by being a better Christian. (whatever that means) ____by being more active in church. All… Read more
