Healing
Just Be Held
I saw a quote this evening that touched my heart. I Found God today reminded to just allow Him to hold me.
Not As Bad
My son hurt his back again a couple days ago and is very upset as he has to be out of work for a while, which is understandable. I was out and about today and stopped by their house to check in. My son was moving around pretty well, which surprised me as last I […]
Race Cars and Cousins
Yesterday I learned that the cousin I just met drives a dragster. It was ironic because my grandson is currently moving to work for a race team. That has been his dream since he was born. My cousin had a family get together this evening and he had his dragster stored there. I was excited […]
Family Ties
Today my sister and I made it to my aunt’s house. When she first opened the door, I saw my mother, which took me by surprise just a little bit. But after only a few minutes, I recognized the accent and laugh of my aunt. It was so good to see her up and moving […]
Stitches Out
It has been 2 weeks since I had the cancer spot removed from above my eye, in my eyebrow area. I had a lovely multicolored black eye, which still lingers. This afternoon I went back to the doctor’s office and had the stitches taken out. I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome. Typically I am […]
Aunt’s Recovery
Today I called my aunt as I haven’t spoken to her for a while. The first thing she said was that she was thinking about me as she was falling asleep last night. She told me that she had a stroke at the end of June. She was in the hospital for about a week, […]
Generous Love
This evening I watched a program featuring a woman who talked about having an abortion when she was a young teenager. She was only 15 years old when she found herself pregnant. Her mother didn’t want her to have the baby and didn’t want the baby to be born under those circumstances. So the young […]
Painful Best
I saw a quote today from C.S. Lewis that read, “We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be.” That reminded me of my thoughts over the past several years. I always knew God was along side us in […]
So Blessed
I had my annual appointment with my primary care physician today. There are always many forms to complete and today was no different. As I went through each questionnaire, I became increasingly grateful. First there was the mental health assessment. I remembered when I went through it last year and realizing there was cause for […]
Similar Experience
Tonight I watched a program about an organization that leads service trips to Lourdes. There was an interview with a young woman who had been on the pilgrimage several times. The first time that she went, she was 12 years old. I was close to that age when I went. She said she wasn’t in […]
