I never comment and I’ve read your work on and off for years- but today- it hit the spot even more than normal. ‘Unless the Lord Builds the house the builders labor in vain’ I have been thinking a lot about work- and have just felt the Lord whispering that I have enough time to do everything I have been called to do. And if he’s working through me it’s enough. And I can find rest in that. Your work encourages me. Thank you!
Thank you, Meghan. I always try to remind myself that I don't need to rush anything whatsoever, as my Lord never rushed, and that, yes, there is *always* enough time to do everything we are called to do. I love "if he's working through me, it's enough". Such a good word to me!
I always appreciate your posts, KeriMae. <3 We must be kindred spirits of a sort, for I can so relate to your experiences. :) Whenever the email comes through, I save it to read with no distractions - like visiting with a friend.
I have been having similar health issues - severe brain fog, unable to find simple words for things and people - breads have been avoided.. but now I am being bold and re-engaging with fresh home-milled flours.. also toying with the idea of sprouting the grains first.
I too found myself giving things away to people- special jewelry, special baking materials, even furniture... It was like I was preparing to die.. sometimes I felt like I was dying.
Engaging your creativity - part of the imprinting of our Creator on us - is so essential to mental health and letting us engage with others well. It is our adult play-time, I think. It has been a lifeline when everything else seemed stripped away... but journaling in prayer to that Creator has been foundational in bringing me back to a good measure of mental and emotional health.
May you sense the LORD's strength and blessing today.. and always.
Thank you so much, Andrea. I feel like I'm visiting with my readers, too! The Lord has been so good to me in bringing so many like minded women into my life. My life experience is not unique, and His strength and wisdom is forever dependable to bring us through. Blessings to you, too.
I low the quilt you made on your wall. And the floor loom is gorgeous! Glad you are able to do what you love. And as far as health, I am happy that you are looking into the foods that cause certain issues.
Your garden sounds amazing also. Mine is doing well. Garlic is getting closer to harvesting. I picked my first soft neck Inchilium Red to see how they are doing. All of them are close. And other things are growing good. Thank you, SO much for these posts, they are a blessing to me. God Bless you, and the family my friend! 💗🙏🏼
