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.

  • Tears in God’s bottle

    Just having my quiet time with God and wanted to share this verse from Psalm: 56:8. You have taken account of my wandering ; put my tears in your bottle.” Isn’t that wonderful? But what does it mean? Here’s my quick analysis. God is aware and takes notice of every tear, shed or unshed. (If… Read more

    grace explained-not so much

    The older I get the more I’m amazed at God’s grace. Sometimes I think I understand what grace is but then God showers me in such a way I realize I didn’t have a clue. And, of course, it always comes when I least deserve it. And, of course, that’s exactly what grace is,      … Read more

  • Succeeding is good. I didn’t make the bed.

    Succeeding is good. I didn’t make the bed.

    This morning I told you that this southern woman was not going to make her bed today.  I decided a little change is good, I decided I needed to change things up a bit. Take a chance.   Loosen up. Relax  Give myself a break. It’s evening. Ask me if I succeeded. Go ahead. Ask.  … Read more

    today is a “first”

    Today is a “first” for me. I’m not making the bed. Youza! Youza! Now to many of the younger generation this is no big deal and I actually admire you for it. (sometimes) But for me, this is a “biggee”. I always make my bed. So why is today different? you may well ask. Because this… Read more

  • cheap, lazy communication

    cheap, lazy communication

    OK, so I’m like getting tired of certain popular phrases. Not only are they overused but I find them a cheap way to use the English language. We seem to be using fewer and fewer words (and more pictures, I might add) to describe complex situations. We’ve become a culture of lazy communicators. Here’s a list… Read more
