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 ancient monks often prayed, “Lord, have mercy” as their “breath” prayers. Christians often repeat the name, “Jesus”. I have a number of phrases I use. A few of my favorites… Read more

I have “walking” pneumonia
Yikes, I have “walking” pneumonia! I need to be careful so it doesn’t morph into the more serious version. My hubby came home from hunting last week and was coughing really hard so I insisted he go to the doctor’s. He was diagnosed with bronchitis. He had told the doctor I had similar symptoms and she suggested… Read more

What does God look like?
We put God in a box. We forget that God shows up outside of our church, our Bibles, our Christian friends. God is as unpredictable as he is unpredictable. Read more
