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.

    “The Spirit who inhabits us is not mute, restricting himself to an occasional nudge, a hot flash, a brilliant image or a case of goosebumps.” This quote is from Dallas Willard’s book, “Hearing God”.

    http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/07/16/daily-prompt-dream/#respond I have many dream homes in my head. Which dream home it is depends where it would be built. In the mountains- a log cabin. Timbered on the inside with majestic, soaring open-beamed ceilings and huge windows.  About six bedrooms suites, each with a fireplace. A library with a cozy reading corner. Wide-planked floors.
