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.

    How are you being spiritually squeezed?

    How are you being spiritually squeezed? How are you growing in Christ? And I hope you are. Because unless you are, you are not growing in Christ. There are perhaps some periods in our life when we are not challenged to grow in some way but I would say they are rare. What does it Read more

  • When our own prayer surprises us.

    Our prayers can surprise us. The prayer I’d been praying about something. The outcome would affect me. Meaning that I would have to accept the answer. I’ve also been praying in bed before I even get up. I call them my rising prayers. I’m tracking them in my BUJO (bullet journal). I’ve been pretty consistent Read more
