Day 120!!!

So today is the 4 month mark...wow.  Once again, I am in awe of where I have come from and where I am now.  I really am a new creation and nothing will ever be the same, Praise the KING OF KINGS!!!  Beth Moore wrote in her devotional today..."I not only love God and trust Him, I love trusting Him.  It is a constant reminder of a perpetual miracle in my life."  Sometimes I wonder when I will be able to turn to HIM only and trust everything to HIM!  I was reminded today at lunch to just ask for the things that we need....I haven't once asked GOD to heal my body.  Makes me wonder why.  I did ask GOD to heal my body after that.

Busy summer ahead, just picked up 2 grandkids to stay for two months, family reunions, camping, beach trips and the list goes on.  There is a worry that I will be so caught up in all the activity, I will forget about taking care of me.  This is one of the things I believe GOD THE FATHER OF ALL is asking me to do.  I have a tendency, as I am sure most of us mothers do, to put ourselves last.  I did it because I was not worthy of the attention that would get put on me.  (I still feel twinges of guilt when I go for a treatment.)  Is that living a full life?  I think not! Here is one of my readings today,  it is Ps 57:7-11:
⁷ My heart is confident in you, O God;
      my heart is confident.
      No wonder I can sing your praises!
 ⁸ Wake up, my heart!
      Wake up, O lyre and harp!
      I will wake the dawn with my song.
 ⁹ I will thank you, Lord, among all the people.
      I will sing your praises among the nations.
 ¹⁰ For your unfailing love is as high as the heavens.
      Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. ¹¹ Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.
      May your glory shine over all the earth.
It was a beautiful sunny day and I should have been praising the ALMIGHTY ONE all day.  To exalt HIM to the heavenlies as the psalmist says......someday we will all be there.

so month 4......joined a new club, had lunch with wonderful new friends, danced like a crazy woman with my granddaughter......rest of life??????believing in the miracle.


If this is your day 1, remember to put HIM in front of you.  HE will shelter you and keep you safe.  Trust and have faith because HE loves us SO MUCH I can't even contain it in the words I write.  I am praying for you and ask that you pray for me.  I still have a long way to go.
Loving you, Jules

Days....losing track!!

I am so happy I am losing track of how many days it has been.  I think I will just do months now.  I remember when I had started this and I told someone it had been 18 days and she replied "well, it will be better when you can say its been 33 days!"  She was right (LOL) it was really good to say that.
Flew to Denver to pick up my grandkids for the summer and just returned today.  There is nothing greater in the world than grandparenting.  Ask any grandparent..... :)  Has grandparenting changed with this generation?  I didn't really have a grandparent so I am not sure if I overdo this grandparent thing or not.  I love these babies so much it hurts!  I am curious about that though.  I tend to lose myself in the midst of this though and this year I still have to focus on me first.  Here is an analogy I thought about in the plane as the safety demonstration was going on.  When the oxygen mask drops, you are to take care of you first and then the children.  Hey moms, take note...take care of you first, your children will be much happier.  I am going to keep reminding myself of this this summer.
Met a wonderful girl on the plane who is doing this art therapy course online.  It is called "Brave Girls" and lasts for 7 weeks.  She and I were on the same path spiritually and emotionally and we talked the entire flight about all we were both doing.  I can just see again how GOD OUR HEAVENLY FATHER takes care of every little thing in our lives.  I needed to meet this girl and her art was amazing.  Thank you Father for that gift.......
So, just started looking at my readings and totally missed my time with GOD for 4 days and the first thing I read was Isaiah 55:8-9 ⁸ “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord.
      “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.
 ⁹ For just as the heavens are higher than the earth,
      so my ways are higher than your ways
      and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.
Very fitting for the last few days!  Isn't HE amazing in our lives?  


So, days whatever.........met an amazing woman, having amazing moments with grand kids, absolutely exhausted, and ready to tackle whatever is next!  Rest of life?????? Feeling so strong and ready for all the fullness!

Take care of yourself, that seems to be the only thing I am supposed to finish with tonight.  I am praying for your day 1.
Lovingly, Jules
