My mother kept saying “Christian HC” and yet you don’t want to feed Alex’s dog. But how many times have I expressed my thoughts and they were ignored? So because I chose to stand my ground and not take care of the dog that I said I would not take care of, I am not a Christian? I spent almost 10 years paying for and feeding Alex’s other dog. I stated I would not be doing that this time around and I will not. The comment hurts, but it’s okay.  It’s part of learning to maintain my boundaries. Life goes on and I will keep getting myself right.

This evening I cleaned out my bookshelves. As part of this year I’ve decided to do a thorough clean and de-clutter. I have a lot of books, over 50% of which I have no desire to read again. Some are extremely outdated textbooks: a lot of those with tossed and another batch packed to be donated. Of course there are those that I will be keeping.  It was a messy, well dusty exercise but that part is done.

It’s later than I usually go to bed. I’m debating what to do. Read the bible, listen to a sermon, just go to sleep?

Thank you Yahweh for today. Thank you for your love, thank you for your promises. Thank you for being good. Thank you for being my light. Thank you for being my strength. 

TODAY’S THANKFUL TALLY

  1. Getting out in nature (bonus!! finding a potential spot to camp).
  2. Your goodness and mercy. 
  3. Ability to “spring clean”.

Thank you Yahweh for walking with me. For keeping me on the right path, thank you for being my guide. I shall not want. Even with no money in my bank account, I shall not want. Thank you for one more day, you brought me through. Thank you. 

You are my strength. I can do all things through you, who gives me strength for tonight.

Provision for tonight.

Healing for tonight.

Hope for tomorrow.

I won’t let go of you, and I am super thankful that you won’t let go of me.

Something that I underestimate is just being in your presence. No talking. Just being. 

Help my unbelief. Some days it seems so far (and it kinda is) and also impossible. But I will keep reminding myself the way that you have reminded me. All things are possible and to trust in your timing.

Trust your timing. 

Trust you. 

Good night.
