This truly is one of my favorite times of the year! Jesus, Family, Friends, Gifts of my Journey, Memories!
Christmas is a time to stop enjoy...I am enjoying my quiet and coffee now:)
Isn't it amazing how God planned this time of year...we have all been running, trying to create, succeed, plan our next move...thinking all along "this" is the most important event in our lives. It's really not, at least I think this season helps us to remember that!
Thank you Jesus for being our Salvation and Gift! I am more than Thankful my parents shared Jesus and his love with me at a young age...and that my journey grows in Him daily!
As I reflect on some things that occurred this year I am even more Thankful I get to be here and enjoy and take it all in...It reminds me also of my Dad, I know he is happy and joy filled in heaven but we miss a physical hug right here! He would be chuckling right now with the anticipation of seeing Michael and his family...and all of his kids and grandkids!
Back to my reflection....I ran hard this year with the ever changing river of this healthcare system, holding hands, being in anguish, and trying to stand in the gap for those in need...It took a toll that I was not prepared for. I have always been mindful of my health and exercise, but you never really know when that might change.
In the busiest time of my work season, I woke up feeling not well...my first thought is pull up your boot straps and get to work, people are relying on you! By 12:00 I knew something was very wrong...so the journey began. I learned how my business works from the inside out! I am also NOT in control...
My surgery was scheduled for 11:00 p.m. I still can not believe it was me being prepped for surgery...
My amazing husband taking the reigns of calm, and amazing family and friends picked up the Prayer support! Results were benign...so very thankful!
I can not thank my family, friends and community enough for your tender care...it came in visits, prayers, food, cleaning my house, storing food for later, work, and clients & friends sending flowers.
Other friends shopping for us! I am a much better giver than receiver, but I have never been more Thankful for each and every one of you!
Jesus was present each moment of the way....
Enjoy your Moments today, don't take them for granted...TODAY is your Gift to unwrapped...slowly with anticipation and eagerness of a child!...Do you remember that feeling? Squint your eyes tonight at the lights on the tree and feel the love and excitement seep in...
Thank you for my Gift of Salvation, and most of all your Gift to our world of YOU!
