Good Evening!
Last night, was a no count day, so I decided to give myself a rest. I am back now! The sun came out for a few minutes and found clouds to hide behind most of the day. These gloomy days wait patiently for a full day of sunshine. It seems like Spring is lingering way to long this year.
John had a doctor's appointment for his itching this morning. Same doctor, same instructions and now we wait. John is very hard headed and with his hearing loss he does what he wants in the end. He should be good for a few months. I go with him as his ears. I hate raising my voice, but sometimes it is the only way. When I married John, he was extremely quiet and now he just talks and talks. He asks me a million questions a day. Tomorrow, he is going to have a reading on his legs for a pulse. He never complains about that area of the new vein so I am assume he is going to be okay. He spends a lot of time with creams and medicine and I have to make sure he isn't over doing it. He will do better once he can be outside and working on the yard and his little projects Praying for him!
Today the lesson was from 1 Corinthians 13:12. All about the mirror and reflection of oneself. As I was viewing myself in the mirror, I wondered how God sees me verses how I see myself. It did not take long to notice a smudge on the mirror. I thought how blessed, I was. Jesus died to remove all that dirty and grim. I pray He sees the love in my eyes for Him. My long ash and gray hair that longs to be cut for a cancer victim. Maybe it is my eye brows from earthly father's DNA. They are unruly and wild with stubborn grey hairs poking uncontrollably through the dark ones. My scars are fading and the memories are leaving. I asked Him what I needed to work on and He boldly spoke into my spirit. To much drama makes you old looking. Drama was my word for the day. Yes, I need to take care of myself with plenty of sunshine and less drama. I seem to attract drama by doing nothing. I am learning to walk away. I gave up television, but I still seem addicted to media news on the internet. I guess it is time to control how much of that I watch. Does all that show on my face? Maybe it does. From now on I will have to check for drama and if I see it or sense it.........I will run from it
I have seen things so differently since, I started this challenge. I am God's precious mess and He is still working on me. Praise the Lord. Planning to make some new circle reminders and sending the ones I have prayed over to my one of my future journals or maybe even my children. I continue to ask God to show me how to love like He does. I want to be filled with that love 24/7 and have it come naturally. No mess ups!
The promise for today is: When your body fails, you have an eternal home waiting for you.
2 Corinthians 5:1
The promise fit right into that story of the mirror. One more move! Yippie! The journey stops with Jesus.
Have a super nice day, tomorrow. Maybe we will have a rainbow or two!
Love is in the ink! Love is in my heart!
Love, Mary Kay
