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.

When God brings things to the forefront of our mind
FALSE GUILT AND UNNEEDED SACRIFICE I think when we get to a certain level of maturity in our Christian faith, God’s prompts are pretty obvious. When we’re young Christians, we often have an over-developed conscience and hold ourselves to a standard that is far harsher than the standards God holds us to. We’re big into Read more

How to face a milestone that isn’t welcomed
What do you think of when you think of milestones? Yesterday I faced an unwelcome milestone but first a definition: 1. stone set up beside a road to mark the distance in miles to a particular place. (Obviously, this wasn’t the milestone I’m referring to. 🙂 ) 2. an Read more
