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.

Saturday morning. Five-o-clock. The phone rings. bri-i-i-i-ing I can’t say it was unexpected. “Mom has fallen. I’m in the ER with her. I think she broke her wrist”, my brother tells me. “Do you want me to come”? I ask after getting a little more information. He said no. She was already in the examining Read more

The week in review and how I fell off the wagon
This has been a good week. But I fell off the wagon on Friday. For months now, I’ve been amazingly disciplined with my exercise routine and eating habits. Until I saw a big bag of Cheetos at the grocery store. The bag practically jumped off the shelf into my cart. It was meant to be. Read more

What is your mission as a Christian? Do you know?
(Continuing with yesterday’s theme) Do we all have the same mission? It’s a b-i-g subject. I think followers of Christ all share the same purpose. I could phrase it a dozen different ways but it all boils down to bringing honor to God, wouldn’t you agree? Honoring God covers a lot of areas. But what Read more

Do you have a hard time defining your mission?
A few weeks ago, I had a conversation with someone that went like this: “I don’t know what I’m on earth for. I serve no purpose for anyone.” While that is not true, I understood what they meant. I think we have all been there, at one point in our life. (Unless, of course, we are Read more

What do you really believe about God?
I was reading something the other day that really got me to thinking about the attributes of God, one in particular, his omnipresence. Omnipresence means God is always present, everywhere, at the same time. He surrounds me as I type and he surrounds you as you read. That doesn’t mean he resides in each of us Read more

Wait till you see my failed lemon cake!
I made my daughter’s day today. Isn’t that what mothers are supposed to do? Give their children something to laugh about and remember? I had this great new cake recipe I was trying out. It’s a lemonade cake made with Squirt soda and is really good. My friend had made it a few weeks ago. Read more
