Faith, Healing and Emotional Wholeness
My new view....
It's so good to finally be back and able to start blogging again after several months of relocating. I am still surrounded with boxes but those numbers are being reduced each week and it's starting to feel like I'm home again.

It's so good to finally be back and able to start blogging again after several months of relocating. I am still surrounded with boxes but those numbers are being reduced each week and it's starting to feel like I'm home again. Moving always feels so stressful for me but I learn so much each time I do it. No two moves are the same and it doesn't seem to matter how often I move, it always comes with the unexpected. It really makes me sit and consider what my expectations were and how to deal with life when something completely different happens. What are your experiences? What have you learned? What do you want to learn?
Today I want to focus on grounding and prioritizing. One of yesterday's readings says, "Accept your situation exactly as it is and then simply place it with your whole heart into the hand of your covenant God."….
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)
So since my fears do not come from God, then they must be one of Satan's tactics to make sure I'm not content. To work this backwards, if I don't have a spirit of love and a sound mind, then I am not in tune with God's plans for me.
We all struggle with things and have countless choices in how to deal with these struggles. This can be anything from minor inconveniences to major events in life. I am surprised at how easily I deal with some things, and equally surprised at how poorly I seem to deal with and understand others.
God has made us with a variety of needs including spiritual, physical, emotional, psychological, and intellectual and He is ready and able to supply these needs. When making important decisions, He provides scripture, guidance from the Holy Spirit and wisdom from people in our lives who provide godly examples and advice. But we must seek it out.
It never ceases to amaze me how much God provides for me and at the perfect time. What does that say about me and my faith? It is growing. All the time. Or, if you prefer, it is lacking. All the time. Either way, I am frequently reminded that He is active in my life in more ways than I acknowledge.

Tonight I am so grateful to have a firewood delivery. We had to decide between groceries or wood and we chose food. That means we got a roast to cook in the crockpot for Christmas and ingredients for other yummy side dishes and we are so excited!
This morning I woke up to moisture! Something I crave but have not experienced in so long I can’t remember the last time. There are clouds, fog and a drop here and there of, well, I can’t call it rain but it was moisture. It was glorious!!
