I Once Was Lost

What a whirlwind these last few weeks have been as the universe decided to drop in my lap a bunch of exciting and scary possibilities that in all honesty I am not ready for.

A dream home came on the market and tempted me. A few dream jobs also came a courting. But unlike in the past, this time around these possibilities left me feeling confused and unsettled. It got to the point where I woke up and realized I was lost — I couldn’t find the person I once was…the one who dared to dream, take a chance, trust God, embrace change. And the more I felt lost, the more I withdrew from the things that gave me joy.

So here I am. Walking a still uncertain path, but vowing to keep showing up each day and trusting God! Because no matter how lost we might feel, God knows the plans He has for us. We are still being led onward. And sometimes, just sometimes, it’s okay to say “no” to those so-called dream homes and jobs. That’s a lesson I have finally learned!

So, I’m back! And can’t wait to share with you some of my insights…and the miracle of how the snowdrops have returned to Old Stone Well Farm!

As always, like, comment and share with friends — because there is always room for all here at the farm, a special place where I always say I am growing a crop of love, hope and community!

Blessings!

A Recent Health Scare Woke Me Up

Friends, I am so happy I was able to get this video to you this week. I am editing between storms and meetings…but it is a message I have been wanting to share with you for a while.

In January, I found a lump on my rib and of course I spent weeks worrying and crying until finally getting the courage to go to the doctor. All is well, but this scare shook me up and made me realize I have been talking way too long about changing the way I live. It is time now to start living.

What life does God want for me? I am still now 100% sure, but I know I need to embrace this day and not worry about tomorrow or yearn for yesterday.

Now is the moment we have…and in time, God reveals God’s plans. And so, join me on this start to the Lenten season with the palm branches burnt for our ashes and to remember, from dust we come and to dust we shall return.

Till then, God is inviting us to live. How will you spend this Lenten season? What is God asking of you in terms of trusting Him more? What needs to change in your life? I know, I know. A lot of questions. But I am eager to hear your answers. Like, comment and share! Blessings to you!!
