The Power of Community

I spent time reflecting today on the power of community. It’s easy to think sometimes that we are alone on an island. For many of us, our days consist of going to work and coming home or taking care of kiddos, cooking dinner, helping with homework, ect. We can get so caught in the grind that life can feel isolating from time to time.

I have been looking at this time as a sabbatical of sorts. Getting up each morning and asking the Lord what He has for me that day. Today, was to spend time in gratitude for the amazing community I have been surrounded with.

In the past four weeks, I have never been without. Sooo many people have shown up. From groceries, to flowers, to meals, blankets, clothes and sooo much more… I can’t even begin to list all the blessings God’s people have bestowed upon me.

Recovery still continues to be slow and it will be several weeks yet until I can go back to THE121. I’ve come to accept and embrace the path God has me on, knowing it is for my good.

I am continuing to introduce new foods almost daily now and understanding some may have to be crossed back off for now.

God continues to help me to fix my focus and I am beyond grateful for the love of community.

I’m thankful for this time and all that God has planned.
