Coming to Terms with a New Me

#IhaveBellsPalsy #Itdoesnthaveme Romans8:28-29! I am healed, just waiting on my face to catch up with God’s hand! I pulled out this t-shirt and wore it as a reminder! I never tell of my storms until I am waaaay out of them. Only few people know of my situations as they happen.. I figured by the time I made this post I would be out of this storm but I am still riding it out... On Tuesday August 27th my life took an altering turn... I was diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy... it was thought that I had a stroke but that was quickly ruled out... it has been a long road and I have had to wrestle with the fact I have something that has no cure and no time limit.. I could be better by the time I finish this post or in days, weeks, months, or years from now.. in the midst of this I am well aware of two things.... 1) I serve a God greater than this ailment and 2) I AM STILL CUTE (lol)!! With this it has played on my mental health and my physical strength. My speech has been affected so I have to be mindful of forming my thoughts and words. I have struggled to speak to be understood...My processing has been a little off... I have only cried one time about it the situation though.. there have been days I couldn’t get out of bed and wanted to throw my whole face away because of the pain... but I am reminded that God’s Grace is sufficient and eventually this too shall pass... and some days have been good some even great... I gotta remember to slow down and rest to continue the healing process...... so I just really wanna encourage someone who may be struggling and tell you even in your storm there is still life!! #LIVEIT! Thank you to my support team members who have been a blessing and a strength and encouragement to me!!! If you have prayed and encouraged—- you are part of that team! My husband and children have been phenomenal with support and spoiling me! Thankful because it could have been worse!!! Happy Saturday folks!!
