Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another Beautiful Morning!

Last night we received an inch of snow and there's  snow in our forecast again today. Jesse, Lee and the grandsons, Nolan and Grant, are coming this weekend from Oklahoma.  So excited! It's been a couple of months since we've seen them.  The boys will really enjoy the fresh snow...

Christine and Gracie comes home from the hospital today.  She's ready...it's hard just laying around.

Last night I was very swollen and sore.  I also had tingling going down both sides of my body.  I really hate it when I have these flares. They can be very uncomfortable and debilitating at times.  

A few weeks back I thought I could work but I'm finding out I no longer have the strength or energy to work full-time, let alone part-time.  I did take a position working 4 to 5 hours a week to see what I still had in me.  I am finding out that even 5 hours can be hard and the exposure to the uv and other lighting does takes a toll on me also.  It's really sad knowing what I used to be able to do.  

I am so thankful for what I can do...

Today's Bible Study

Joy to the World

“You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.”
(Psalm 16:11, NIV)

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

God promises that joy is found in His presence. If you’ve accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then His presence lives inside of you. That means you can have joy 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

Joy manifests when you focus your heart on the Father and praise Him for who He is and what He’s done in your life. The Bible says that He inhabits the praises of His people. When you begin to praise and thank Him, you are in His presence. You have access to His full joy.

Today, know that no matter what’s going on around you, God wants you to experience His supernatural joy and peace at all times. That’s why He sent His Son, Jesus, into the world, so He could live inside of you. Don’t waste another minute feeling burdened or condemned. Let the joy of the Lord be your strength and move forward in the victory He’s prepared for you!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, thank You for an endless supply of joy. Today I choose to cast my cares on You and praise You because You are worthy. Let joy flow through me as I honor You in all I say and do in Jesus’ name. Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

 Looking forward to another great day...
