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.

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

    week in review and a bittersweet week coming up

    This has been a kinda’ quiet week and some good things have happened. We learned why my mom has felt so bad lately;  she’s quite anemic. That was good news because we were grasping at straws where her health was concerned. I pray for wisdom about my mom every day. I ask God to direct… Read more

  • How to live out Philippians 2:3

    “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.” Philippians 2:3    My translation is: Read more

  • How to honor God? Self-examination comes first.

    My aunt is dying but it is expected as she is one hundred and two years old. I will miss our phone conversations. I was hoping to get to see her again. (She lives a long distance away.)  She doesn’t miss a beat. Her hearing and her vision are intact. She plays Scrabble and is a worthy… Read more
