January went fast, didn’t it? In January I started my focus on the fruits of the spirit, I chose peace as first one. February I am choosing love. A verse caught my eye while I was reading in devotionals “There is no fear in love. Perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made in perfect love.” I have chosen this verse for this month.
Love scares me. I have had love used as a weapon against me. I have been bullied by love, or at least from those who have professed that they love me. I have no idea what real love feels, smells, or obtains. I want to learn. That is why after my last boyfriend died, I chose to not engage in a relationship until I was healed and felt like I could pick better. I feel ready to step forward into finding a loving relationship even though I am scared. I will be taking it slow. Slow and steady is my mantra.
At the beginning of February, I got the dreaded call of my caregiver having Covid-19 and that I needed to get a test. Thankfully, my test was negative, and I am not having any symptoms. It has been ten does. My caregivers’ fever has finally lifted, she still feels yucky. I am grateful she is doing better. I miss her. I have subs coming in and it is not the same. Flexibility is the name of the game when it comes to living with a chronic illness. Changes happen all the time. They are always unexpected and challenging, but I have learned to roll with the punches and trust God to get me through.
February, my goals are to get my body moving. My friend Karen from Wellness Works NW created a video for me on Youtube for an exercise routine using the balance ball. Check it out. I will include a link below if you are interested in doing the routine with me. Like Wellness Works Youtube channel to get more videos. I have the video routine and the balance ball, now I need the motivation to get moving. February that is what I will be working on.
What will you be working on in February? I would love to hear what you are up to.
Please wait...
