MUCH NEEDED.  1830. Resting in my identity that is hidden in Christ. less anxiety and fear then before. I am HIS. and He is mine. Thanks be to God!! 1831.

1817-1827

1817. weeding out, flushing out, detoxing my spirit with unneeded anxieties, troubles, and just plain gunk that built up in my heart. God be praised for walking with me, reviving me, and redirecting me to Himself. 

1818. up to 2 liters of water every two days. i know i can do better, but i rejoice that i am drinking more water than i have and it has improved me in a lot of areas.

1819. one small week, yet cherished, to decompress in between visitors. 

1820. talk with Casey that was a blessing to share and listen, and God preparing both our hearts to allow us to be on the same page when stuff comes up. 

1821. a renewed walk and passion for the Lord and His Word. the joy of learning about Christ and His character. thankful for the ability to learn and grow.

1822. face times with goodies back home. friendships remain strong and immovable. if anything, growing by the minute. praise God for these gifts. 

1823. watching as my husband seeks God, reads his Bible, journals, enters into chaos and is wiling to share truth and wisdom. i am proud of him and he is the man i always dreamed of. [believe me, i know it sounds cheesy as f, but let me just have a squishy moment]

1824. long dusky evenings in Oxford. the sky still stays lit as the sun casts shadows on buildings and streets, people still out and about, there is a calm, relaxing atmosphere and i have really enjoyed it. 

1825. exploring little house projects that give me a small incentive to looking forward to going back to my home.

1826. just found out some unexpected visitors are coming and they want to see us! thankful that they would give us time..

1827. a new ginger beer infused with pear that i discovered at gourmet burger kitchen. perfect amount of spicy, sweet, and deep lush hints of pear. delicious.
