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.

  • We are called to pray outrageously.

    We are called to pray outrageously.

    Praying men and women and providence have always gone together. Men and women in scripture prayed about everything because they believed God was interested in everything that concerned them. They did not believe they were at the mercy of a tyrant called nature which they could never interrupt or change by request. The whole history of the Israelites Read more

  • WHEN YOU FEEL CRUSHED, THERE IS HOPE

    THE DILEMNA Lord, hear my prayer,    listen to my cry for mercy;in your faithfulness and righteousness    come to my relief.2 Do not bring your servant into judgment,    for no one living is righteous before you.3 The enemy pursues me,    he crushes me to the ground;he makes me dwell in the darkness    like those long dead.4 So my spirit grows faint within me;    my heart within me Read more

  • Have you found yourself doing strange things lately??

    Have you found yourself doing strange things lately??

    Something strange has been happening for a few weeks now I thought I’d share with you.  I see it as symbolic.  I see it as a way God might be trying to get my attention.  The book of Proverbs concentrates on wisdom. It’s one of my favorite books and I read through it every month Read more

  • What do hair and depression really have in common?

    O.k., today’s post may seem silly. What does hair have to do with depression? Actually, more than you might know. I got to thinking over these years of depression-free years what has been my one constant? The one constant was my hair. It’s wild, unruly, and I have a lot of it. I’ve colored it Read more

    How critical thinking aids in problem-solving

    (This is an older post but it still “works”. ) Let’s face it. Critical thinking is most important when it comes to problem-solving. I think I have a good example. As you know, we are considering a move in the next few years. The very first thing my husband and I did is to ask Read more

  • How to make really good decisions

    The need to make a decision seems to happen in bursts. For example, we were remodeling one room in our basement. There were decisions after decisions after decisions. Do we install carpet tiles or vinyl planking? What color paint? What do we do about the trim? Well, you get it. Or when maybe you’re planning Read more
