Name it...

2 weeks ago I went to this headache institute in Ann Arbor and after a year of seeing all kinds of doctors in the Detroit area, they were able to diagnose my headaches. To finally have a name for what's wrong with me has been so comforting. I know it may sound silly, but not knowing what is wrong, just knowing something is terrible not right is a horrible feeling. Once you name something you can than search for the cure, the answer to the problem. I am naming things, good and bad in my life right now - loved, loving, caring, inpatient, honest, emotional, afraid, peaceful. Those are just a some of the names of characteristics living in me. An I feel comforted in knowing that all the things that aren't right have cures. Naming it, it's the first step in healing.

Well I haven't blogged for sometime, and honestly I thought I was done blogging, but I keep having dreams of myself blogging and they are good dreams, so here I am blogging.
The last year has been a hard one. I've had a migraine level headache everyday since mid April 2009. The good news is I have found help and I am beginning to feel better.
I have learned a lot this year. First of all I am not as strong as I would hope, but stronger than I would have guessed. My attitude has changed towards God. I thought I was much further on trusting God than I really am. Oh and as you can see I don't mind being completely honest. I have learned that is the only way to get anywhere positive.
I also know that I can't change my own heart, so instead of working on something I can't fix I pray everyday that God will change my heart, and he is.
I have also moved out of my parent's house and am now living with two amazing women of God who are teaching me everyday what obedience and trust in God looks like. I can't say that I don't miss living with my parents, I did get used to be spoiled, and it is a nice thing. Parents don't ever worry about spoiling your kids with love too much!
So I think I have some good things to say and here is where you will find them.
