5/24/24- Gratitude

Do you think we are to understand or know all the intricacies of life?

Always a great day to express gratitude…It's Friday! I'm grateful to feel less physical discomfort and phenomena this Friday.


My body has been somewhat of a phenomena for the past 8 years. As most say these days, this is my new normal. Well, it doesn't feel all that normal.


I have to listen to my body now when pain flares up. My new normal will include days of tingling, numbing and sometimes shooting pain concentrated in different areas of my body. Most days I get up and push through, but yesterday was not one of those days. I just needed to completely rest and sleep.


After all of this crazy physical stuff started happening with my body, I sought answers for years. I would receive encouragement from friends to keep seeking the right doctor. I will say, I have found a pretty good Functional Medicine Doctor. I have also had to make some serious hard changes to my diet and supplemental daily routine to help me have more good days than bad.


I came to the realization a few years ago, that no I’m not able to understand everything or know all the answers about why my body suffers. Not having all understanding is the equivalent of having Faith that there is a God. Faith and Trust are the keywords here. After all, God didn't want Eve to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. He was trying to protect us and require us to Trust Him and have Faith in Him and His plans.


I'm grateful for every day that I get to live and love in this lifetime. I also have complete Faith that I will be with God one day.


Hebrews 9: 27- 28

“Everyone has to die once, and face the consequences. Christ’s death was also a one-time event, but it was a sacrifice that took care of sins forever. And so, when He next appears, the outcome eager for those to greet Him is, precisely, salvation.”
