I am not a morning person, but I always look forward to swim time. #usmastersswimming #swimtime #swim #letsswim #myquiettime (at Indian Valley Family YMCA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIJPVdBnZH9/?igshid=pbwfvwzqz50n

Today was rainy and damp today. So I decided to go for a swim after work. It was a mess, it was busy and I forgot my watch. It wasn’t the swim I wanted but I am still so glad I went. Keep showing up and it will come together. ❤️🏊🏻‍♀️ #usmastersswimming #swim #myquiettime #ymcaswimming #getwet #bocogear #swimtime (at Indian Valley Family YMCA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGbJ1TsHKQE/?igshid=1ifp1bgv6cx3j

He died for us. I don't stop and think about this often enough. Lately, it wrecks me, which it should. It brings me back to what matters. He matters. Nothing else. Not the things that fill my days. Him. Not the worries in my brain. Him. I'm humbled and grateful for the relationship I have with Him. Am I living my days perfectly glorifying Him? Not even close, but He never leaves me. Not when I don't go to church on Sundays. Not when I yell at my kids. Not when I'm having road rage. Not when I'm having a cocktail. He's always there. I don't take it for granted. I know that He is my source of strength and peace. I know He has all the answers for me. I know He has my path laid out and goes out ahead of me. I'll never be able to pay for His sacrifice. I just know that my faith is always in Him and I'm thankful for it. What a mess I would truly be... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

#longpostalert I'm not superstitious or a follower of chakras or anything to the like. I believe in one true God. He's got my path already set and goes out ahead of me. However, I do pay attention to messages that seem to make sense to me at just the right time. The full moon for example. "Full Moon is Sunday, August 26 at 5:56 AM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT). This is a compassionate and emotional moon that supports beauty, desire, healing, love, joy and satisfaction. In the aftermath of extremely challenging times, we certainly can use this reset and refocus onto what makes us happy and what feeds our hearts and our souls. Spend some time reflecting and reorienting yourself to what is important, truly important, and to what will nurture you sustainably. Be willing to let go of old attachments especially to what does not nurture you. Old habits are hard to break and fear of the unknown tends to keep us stuck and unable to move forward. With this full moon, let us expand our trust in spirit so we can step onto that path of moving forward that we all really want at this time. This moon provides a portal for breaking through past wounds, fears, obstacles and limiting belief systems. Use it well and remember to “stay in your own lane”!" Does the moon affect our behaviors?? I don't know. Before finding the above information and during the full moon, I had a cathartic meltdown that I realize was long overdue. So the combination of it all and spending #myquiettime with Him has left me refreshed. I'm ready to refocus on what's important and not take things for granted. I'm more than ready to remove the toxicity in my life that doesn't encourage and build me up. I'm ready to stop letting certain things and people steal my joy. I'm ready to stop letting the enemy take over my thoughts. This is what glorifies Him. He's given us individual beauty and strength that we need to own. Sometimes it takes a full moon and a meltdown to get us back on track. I'm grateful for His grace and mercy that is there before, during and after it all. #dontlookbackyourenotgoingthatway #noshame #iamloved #mondaymotivation #Godisgood #itsarelationshipnotareligion #doyouknowHim
