Wow! It's 2015. It has been a year of ups and downs. Like Mountain Top highs and very low vallies. I like to get real. But on the flipside, I'm not throwing all of the dirty laundry out and going into details about the vallies.
So with that being said I'm feeling beyond blessed. It is a crazy season of life right now. I have mentioned before that a few years back I suffered a miscarriage and battled postpartum following. I also mentioned postpartum hit again after precious Ben was born. He's 16 months old now! I immediately took action again when it hit. Prozac works wonders.
I recently decided to come off it after 16 months. I feel great. Thanks be to God!
I think some of the vallies may have been contributed to the Prozac. I learned some very important lessons in those vallies.
1) Marriage is 100%/100%. Not 50/50.
2) Speak up even if it is hard.
3) Marriage is sacred and you don't play around.
4) God's grace is amazing.
5) God's plans are amazing.
6) Homeschool is hard but worth it.
7) If you mess up your gym routine' gains become loss!
Do you want me to keep going on with my lessons learned this past year? Hahaha.
I know everyone has a choice of path A or path B to choose. Satan knows this too. God knows which path we will choose. He allows us to make our own choices. He also allows us to speak up and ask for forgiveness. And by the grace of God alone, though often times I'm not even sure WHY, He grants us grace and forgiveness! ! Can I get an AMEN!!
Another lesson learned is we have to forgive too. Not just others but OURSELVES! ! That's a tough one, right?! God doesn't really like it when we question Him. If He thinks we are worthy of His forgiveness then why do we still hold on and not forgive ourselves? Human nature? Satan? Both? We make mistakes. We sin.it has been that way from the first bite of the apple. I have learned to 🎶 let it go!🎶 I HAVE to forgive myself when I sin and screw up. If God thinks I'm worthy of it then who am I to second guess Him?
So Mountain Top moments. God's grace, glory, love, plan, forgiveness....I can keep going! I adore seeing His hand at work! There is no such thing as a coincidence.
Another Mountain Top moment, realizing that I am string enough. I am enough. I am doing what God has called me to. I have learned that I am not just a homemaker. A homemaker is a HUGE responsibility. Proverbs shows us that. We just have to believe it! I am not going to apologize for who I am. I am who I am. I am who God made as He made me! Self acceptance is an amazing thing. No 2 snowflakes are the same. It is the same with people! Thank goodness there is not another me! Not sure if the world could tolerate 2 of me! 2 thumb your nose at the norm, OCD, quirky, ADHD of me! 😨 Scary!
So here's to 2015! May it be the best one yet!
