I haven’t blogged in a while. Truth is, most days I don’t even remember where I left off. Between memory loss, brain fog, sickness it’s all been part of my daily battle. Sometimes I find myself wondering, “Lord, what lesson are You trying to teach me in this season?”
I believe that I’m starting to see it.
This season is teaching me presence. To stop obsessing over yesterday or worrying about tomorrow, and instead just breathe in today. Even when it’s messy. Even when it hurts.
It’s teaching me grace. To treat myself with the same patience and love that I give to my children. To stop beating myself up for not being “the old me” and honor the woman I am becoming.
It’s teaching me dependence on God. To know that even when my memory slips, He never forgets me. Even when my body feels weak, His strength carries me.
It’s teaching me to slow down. To stop measuring myself by the world’s pace and instead move at the rhythm my soul and body can handle.
And it’s teaching me about legacy. That my kids don’t just need to see my wins — they need to see my fight, my faith, and the way I get back up every time life knocks me down.
So no, I don’t have it all together. Some days I barely make it through. But this season is teaching me that even in the struggle, God is still writing my story — and it’s not over yet.
