Sometimes life can feel overwhelming but we can feel strength in our Savior. Ask the Spirit to lead you, call upon His Name and let your soul rest in His embrace.
"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?" Matt. 6:25 - 26 (ESV) When we consider our lives, do we truly understand that all things are in God's Hands? So often we struggle with situations or difficulties and try to fix them. Sometimes there are actions we can take, but then we worry about whether it was the right action or choice. We need to lay it all before Him in prayer and then trust that He is in control of all things! Seek God's help, and then trust that He will lead you on the right path. We also need to remember to leave it with Him. There have been times in my life where I've prayed about things and I say I'm leaving ...
Day 20 - "Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity" Psalm 133:1 I am so thankful for my family in Christ. How blessed we are to be able to go to church today! To be able to worship in freedom, to openly share our faith and praise God. This past year there have been times when the love of our church family has truly shone brightly. I am so thankful for the love and care God has shown through his people. This past year we have had countless meals made for us, people have helped clean our house, and we've received numerous cards. Our communion of saints has cared for us, loved us and supported us through all the trials and hardships this past year has seen. I am so thankful that God has given us our church family. It is truly a blessing and an amazing thing to see everyone working together to support each other. With love, #thenormelhouse because things in life are never really normal
Some days are just hard. You think you're starting to get on top of things but you get knocked off your feet. Grief can do that. It's ok to grieve, it's ok to have a bad day, and it's ok to need time to gather yourself. But make sure you do; don't let your grief take over and keep you down. I know it can be hard. Many things can take you off guard and send your mood spiralling down the drain. I once worked at a place that gave me some seriously emotional bruising. Every day I had to go in felt worse and worse. Im fairly certain that while it was an awful situation, I probably could have dealt with it a bit better if I'd realized it was only one part of my life. I let it take over and allowed myself to become miserable all the time. It definitely wasn't the healthy way to deal with it. Sometimes work can feel like everything in your life, but it truly isn't. My poor hubby had to hear me upset and frustrated and emotional every day! Talk about being a de...
