Only God

Good evening! Tuesday blog! How is everyone doing? Everyone is so concerned about taking temperatures! How about emotional temps? Is there a meter for checking that! Today is the first I have been in a Drs. Office! I have to be straight, I felt like I walked into a sci-fi movie! I actually felt creepy! My biggest highlight when I leave the house, is knowing I am driving through McDonalds for the biggest coke! It lasts all day! Each day I have tried to think about when and if something changes! When you lose a loved one, especially a spouse, all I could think of was hugs! I went back to church that same weekend! Hugs are so comforting. I wanted to give hugs as well as receive! That was taken away. No holiday parties, no family hugs! It’s heartbreaking! I can hardly believe what I hear and see! I understand it all. I am not feeling sorry for myself! One positive miss for me can take me down a slippery slope! Where I do not want to go! So, people are socially distant for all kinds of reasons! For me, I have to check myself often! Cannot cling to or put any worldly things before God! Our 50th class reunion was cancelled yesterday! I do understand! But it was a bright spot to look forward to! So, do not look to things, people, family, events or even yourself! None of these things satisfy! Only the Lord Himself! People, carrying on about things that just do not matter! The coffin is not big enough to take it all with you! If this pandemic doesn’t make you stop and think! You might have a rough ride! Remember, you are the only one that can change you! With Gods help of course! I got into recovery to save family relationships, wrong reason! I stayed in recovery for me! I am sharing something that Erma Bombeck wrote before she passed away at 69! Good night! God bless!❤️🤗🙏🏻🤗❤️
