WE HAVE ONLY ONE BODY – TAKE CARE OF IT

Tomorrow is my follow up with Dr. Gordon for last month’s Rhizotomies. I’m thankful to report that I’m finally able to take long walks in the evening and today I’ve returned to the gym. I know exercise is key but with my hardware I must always be wise. I do my best to keep my back straight and have good posture since I’m a virtual ‘bionic woman’ on the skeletal level due to back surgeries. I’ve worked very hard to keep myself moving (as years ago I was told I may be in a wheelchair) and today I was back in the pool – progress.

As I walk, I worship the Lord through my headphones. I’ve been so thankful to be moving better that I’m virtually be-bopping as I walk. I still have pain, but thankfully less.

Denny, the YMCA lifeguard, said I looked great and she could see I felt better just by seeing my smile.  Please keep me in your prayers, I pray I hear the same from more friends.

Blessings, Mary

Did You Know God Loves to Showcase His Mercy?

How would we live our lives if we truly understood that our purpose is to love Him and to love His reflection in our neighbors? The truth is we are chosen, loved, welcomed, counted holy and blameless because of what Christ accomplished on the cross for us. Jesus said “It is finished” (John 19:30) and He alone paid the price for us to be received by His Father in eternity.

Crack-Pipe Biden Policy vs Biblical Health and Wellness

Honestly, I’ve grown weary of the palpable weaponization of poverty and homelessness in our country. It’s a cudgel wielded by political parties living far away from the consequences of their poor planning and enflamed passions of ‘useful idiots’. It takes everything I have at times to pray for our leaders - especially when they use racism as a main tool in their divisive rhetoric.
