nahhh not really just happy with the blessings I have in this life and so grateful to my friends and family.
It is a beautiful November day out so going to grab my ipod and take a nice fast long walk get in a little extra exercise today and count my blessings . I am on the move to get things done before my upcoming surgery I have started the Christmas shopping and have been cleaning up my little messes in the closets and storage room ect... Next thing will be cleaning the house good . you know really cleaning it not just the surface but deep clean! Maybe get my hubby to get the windows all cleaned!
God is speaking into my life on so many things it is hard sometimes to wrap my brain around His goodness and His care of me! I am so pleased that I am able to please Him thru my abstinence that I am able to worship Him without the specter of the addiction looming over me standing between Him and me .
I am looking out the window and seeing the trees that are the color of Topaz which is my birthstone color and realizing that these warm oranges and deep yellows and reds are the colors of my soul... the only thing missing is the purples!! But as I look at the colors and read all the birthday messages today my heart is overflowing with love and gratitude of my friends and my family. And I do truly miss the ones who are missing . I pray for him and his family today - that they will find reconciliation with God and within our family. My heart grieves for his soul and I pray for him daily - but I know it is not anything I can do . He needs to come to the saving reconciliation of Christ in his life . I grieve that he is not a Christian and pray he comes to Christ.
So for today tho I am making my gratitude my attitude ! I am abstinent today by the Grace of God the strength of Jesus being my everything and the fellowship I share in OA
Happy 51st birthday to me!
