Sunday

I got back from vacation and enjoyed it. I found a few things to be true.
My body is more resilient than I thought.
Vacation isn't vacation if I bring the same mindset with me.
I enjoyed more cookies than I care to count.
I'm changing.
And that's ok.

Find

Finding God will meet me where I am.

Great

Letting go and Letting God

God is good

Fighting fear with faith

Getting personal

I am feeling scared. Scared of failure, messing up, getting it wrong, and waiting too long because I don't want to face the fear. I know I can't hide forever, but it's comfortable. Why must I crave comfort?  Lord, God I need You to let me face my fear.

He is Risen

On this day, I will simply say thank you Jesus.

Good Friday

It is Good Friday. And all I can wonder is if I've spread myself too thin. Doubt and worry have got come in. I'm thinking of all that could go wrong, and if it does it will be all my fault. But it's Good Friday keeps coming to mind. All this to say, in seven years of being a Christian, is that I have to remember what drew me to Him and what keeps me there.

Vulnerability

This is my heart. My heart wonders if I will find love. A man to love me, all of me. I realize I must love self first. If it doesn't happen can I still find acceptance and joy in Christ, the deliverer of my soul.
My heart wonders if I will see Paris.
My heart wonders if I can find the beauty in each day.

Are you a fan of pen pals?

Pain and Peace

I'm learning each day. Learning lessons I wished I fully learned years ago.  Would it have saved me some pain. As I lower expectations of people, do I include myself?  Do I hold on to the promises of who God says I am versus what the world tells me?  An eye opener for sure. How does stay an idealist when seeing harsh realities that unsettle my being.

Pick

Ice cream or sorbet
Gum or mint
Smile or wink

Perservere

I'm learning what it is to perservere once again. When I was younger I relished the challenge Cerebral  Palsy forced me to face. Now, not so much. I don't have the desire to fight the battle. Part of me now weighs do I pick that fight back up or lay it down.   Do I fight for justice, or just live, having faith that that alone is enough?

Pick

Raisins
Cherries
Peanuts

Pray

My day starts better when I pray.

Pick

Gummies
Sour worms
Hershey kisses

Tuesday

Flipped in my Bible.  I came to Proverbs 11:2. I got humbled quick. My heart and head have been filled with self-pity because I have had my heart on what I wanted, not what I have. Sometimes the only One who can humble you is God.

Pick

Blueberry
Blackberry
Raspberry

Fear

Honestly fear has gotten to me today.

Card

Would anyone be interested in receiving a card from me?
