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.

Depression and the pit? Don’t get comfortable. There’s a way out
One of the interesting and sad facts about depression/anxiety is that we get so comfortable with the condition we can’t imagine life any other way. While there are some things we do have to adjust to and learn to live with, depression and anxiety is NOT one of them. So if you’re dwelling… Read more

Praying your worry
(This week I will be focusing on mental health issues. Some of the posts might be longer than usual, like this one. 🙂 Just so ya’ know.” Isn’t it interesting how the color blue is supposed to be peaceful and at the same time we use that color to describe a low mood? “I’m feeling… Read more
