Remission

 

August 2018 was quite a month.  It started with a retirement party for my sister-in-law at the beginning of the month.  Overnight that night my little Toyota Yaris was stolen and because I had left my wallet in the car, I dealt with two different police departments following a ring of card thefts.  It was necessary for me to reschedule my mammogram from Monday to Wednesday that week.  The mammogram when I found out I had cancer.  Because my son and his daughter had flown out on Friday night to join the rest of the family for their first real vacation, I didn’t want anyone to know and disturb them, so I told no one except a neighbor who gave me a ride to the car rental office.  My five-year checkup is coming up soon and my car is once again just about paid off.  I’ve been reading a book by Andrew Murray about abiding in Christ and it has changed my relationship with Him so much.  I’ve been saved for almost 40 years and this is the closest I’ve been to Him.  I truly feel His love.  Thank You, Father.

Salvation Statement

  Truly Believe 10.2024           “Why are we here?”   God made us for a relationship with Himself, a relationship meant to carry us into eternity.

God's Intended Life for Me

Slowly, consistently, gently, work toward producing a setting which can sustain the life that God intended for me.  Allow His true meaning (physical and emotional) for my life to thrive. Let Prayer and Gratitude survive.  Make them a centerpiece. Stop constantly and consciously surrounding myself with negative memories of my past.  Let God’s intended life for me take hold and grow. Positive , loving , God-Centered Peacefulness and Gentleness .  Let go of all the negative situations I surround myself with. Shun human standards. Meditate and pray, making choices about my actions beforehand to lessen the harshness of my autism. Look to other Christian women as examples. Always be aware of being under His gentle, loving wing. He is our Father and He truly loves us. Never forget, He made us for the purpose of having a relationship with Him.
