The year ahead

 2026. 

We are here

May you be

Kind and gentle

Exude a peace

That surrounds 

This body

In the 

Best hug

Ever received

2025

Taught me

That we

Make plans

And God

Says look here

Listen

And trust

What I’m 

About to 

Do

New year

 New Year

Same God

Different me

Same God

Trust and obey

New year

Same story

It all starts

And ends

With the 

Father

necessary

 In the

Cold winter air

I’m reminded 

That all 

Seasons are 

Necessary

The ones

I don’t like

Are the 

Most useful

For growth

Pruning

Sowing

And reaping

May difficulty

Not scare me

But be welcomed

With open arms 

Learn

 What I’m learning

I got an unexpected gift this Christmas. It was wrapped so well. It was so pretty. I didn’t want to open it. I still have the ribbon. Christmas has been beautiful, yet tested my mettle. God is good. Even when I’m not. All the pretty exterior can’t mask inner turmoil. I’ve been in a battle with my own body and mind. And my goal for the New Year is a consistent perseverance. 

God never stops refining us. Never lets off the gas. He is the driver of my car, not me. 

Your will not mine is the hardest lesson I constantly relearn even if I don’t want to. Isn’t that how He works. 

Love Regine

What is bringing you joy?

Favorite Christmas gift?

Love

 It’s been mentally and physically taxing in recovery. Holidays are not great times to recover. I’m beyond cranky. Pray for me please. I write this because you all have asked that I continue to share my love and light. The fact is I’m not feeling the love and light right now. I’m a flawed human being in need of His light. God Bless you all

Merry Christmas

 Merry Christmas. The weary world rejoices. 

Sending love and light

Your way

May it

Be a day

Of joy

Hope and 

Love
