Coming Clean

I have been in a rut the past few days. A mental fog kind of.

I emailed someone, seeking advice and the entire experience has left a bad taste in my mouth, for lack of a better term. Apparently the person I emailed has an assistant who reads the emails first then passes them along. I received a reply, but it did not give advice, it felt more like a pat on my head than wise counsel.

In reading my email, I thought I was clear that I was seeking guidance, but I guess it did not come across as such. The reason for the bad taste is because I did not intend what I wrote to be seen by others. I was caught off guard when I received notification that my email would be passed along to the recipient. If I had known, I would have written by hand. In the long term scheme of things is it major? No, but since then I have felt adrift.

I am still trying to make sense of the verse 1 John 2:28. Something about the verse has me unsettled. I am going to email one more person in hope of receiving some clarity. I have talked to one or two people but I tend to end up with more questions and concerns and still no answers.

I am currently done with the verse a day challenge. I hope you were inspired. I am going to take a few days off from blogging and try working on my book. Once I complete the first chapter I will share a snippet of it with you.

God bless, and keep seeking the Lord.

Check up

My sweet Stone had his 9 month check up this morning. It went well. I was anticipating vaccinations but instead we only had measurements and a blood/urine check. He is growing well and is very healthy. All results came back well and the doctor is happy with Stone's growth and development.





 

With that in mind, I think we should all from time to time do a spiritual check up. Do you have any un-repented sin? Are you holding onto anything that you need to give over to God? Have you sat at His feet and just listened lately? Are you praying to Him? Are you reading your Bible? We need whole wellness to serve Him with purpose. If any area is not getting a clean bill of health, find the remedy and cure it!

Eleven months ago, my husband and I settled that the current school year (22-23) would for now be our kids last year at their school. Going ...
