Only a few more weeks to find out the true transformation that has taken place during this year.
What have the trials produced? It is really true that hard things that we go through will make us stronger in the long run. Even if it’s not something that we want to hear or even think about. Life is just not always going to be smooth and easy on this earth.
Some seasons will be smoother and more joyful and others will feel like trudging through quicksand. One thing is for sure, they both pass. They do move on to the next season.
It was quite unbelievable that today there were several “suddenly” things that happened. Like several things that were just amazing miracles. An auto that had been sitting in the back yard that sold. A grandchild that had been suffering a heart defect healed. My husband told by the Veteran’s Administration that they were doing a back pay on all money that he had spent on medication back to a certain point! And last, all of his tests came back great after having Covid earlier this year.
Last week I was seriously starting to feel like things were getting hopeless. That is ALWAYS a lie! Things are NEVER hopeless, no matter what! The battle is usually in our mind and lies that we believe. If we are not feeling well, we are a little more vulnerable for falling for lies. Falling into negativity is a slippery slope.
There are many things to look forward to in our lives. Picking out the word for 2022 is something I look forward to. That’s a tradition for me… I’m thinking about my word now but haven’t settled on it 100% yet. One thing that I do know is that Marty and I have been reinvented this year and the main thing is eating more healthy. I think we’ve had some mindset changes also. We’ve had many things be a SLOW process when we would have liked to move a little faster… that’s okay though….sometimes:
That has seemed to be a true statement this year about many things. I don’t think I have ever had this certain thing hit home as much as it has this year. It’s seemed like all of the things that used to work in the past changed and there were new rules to the game and I had to adjust.
I am adjusting and I am moving forward. One thing that I will not choose to be and that is stuck. Whatever I have to go through to be unstuck will work for me.
The next few weeks I’m praying and seeking my word for 2022 and I’m dreaming about the days ahead and seeing what God wants to happen in my life next year. I’m closing out the transforming that took place in 2021 and I’m grateful for the wonderful miracles that all happened in one day this week.
•We never know what can all turn around in just one day!
•We can’t listen to lies in our mind…we have to fight for truth!
•Reach out and talk to someone if you are sinking, we are never really alone!
•Do you have a word for 2022? Sort of a theme for your life next year?
•There is ALWAYS hope no matter what!
•I’m here if you need me!
See ya’ll next week!

In the natural, 2021 has been one of the worst years of my life. Trudging through and almost dreading some days.
God remains ever present even in these hard times. I have learned to lean into Him when I feel alone, afraid, sick.. etc. He understands!
The enemy wants us to believe different.
Sometimes all a person needs is a short prayer, a smile, or a kind word to put them back on the path of seeking Jesus.
Find your tribe!
Life is hard.. BUT GOD IS BIGGER!!
Yes He is Bigger❣️🥰❤️
