Adding quotes


What would it be like if you lived each day, each breath, as a work of art in progress? Imagine that you are a masterpiece unfolding, every second of every day, a work of art taking form with every breath.

Pre-Easter

I was just thinking it's been a while since I've blogged.
I am proud of my mother-in-law in a new way after last weekend.
It's been almost three years since her husband passed away.
She is doing really well at getting out of her comfort zone.
She inspires me.
I gave her a book for her birthday that my mom gave me and my daughters and my sister.
It's called "Jesus Calling" by Sarah Young.
It's all about trusting God. So, since we are reading together we are learning to trust together.
I've been learning that in order to work on my worry problem there is no other option than to
trust God.
If you know of another antidote let me know.
I have worked on my worry problem and I'm seeing progress.
I just wanted to say that.
Easter is a good time to think of trusting God, I do trust Him now. Took me a while.
Tomorrow is Good Friday. He died for me. I'm forgiven. I'm free. I accept the gift of grace.
I feel like celebrating more this Easter than I have ever in my life of 51 years.
So cool. I think I'll celebrate more about the fact that I can trust, I'm forgiven, I don't have to worry.

Post Christmas

Today was a milestone for my mother in law.
She made it through church with all the hugs and tears and I'm just proud of her.
Her husband passed away on Dec. 22nd and now she is going through the loss.
My mother in law is an inspiration to me.
I think I would have just stayed home today but she is going though it the way I
think we're supposed to. It's just weird that there is no "right" way to grieve.
I'm glad there isn't because I would be worried about doing it right because I
tend to be a people pleaser. Good for mom - she is a good example to me.
