Slippery Slopes

Life has a way of showing up with circumstances that can set us up for a fall.  If we aren't centered and grounded at that time we may be subjected to the consequences that prevail.


Not long ago I found myself in a position that could have set me back ten years in my recovery.  At the night's end I was in tears. 

Painful feelings I hadn't felt in many years washed over my body, mind and soul. I was overcome with sadness, desperately grieving desires I could no longer fulfill.

It was all I could do to remain thankful and content with where God had placed me in this season of life.  

I was quickly reminded to tighten my guard and to hold steady to the answer for my hope!
