Life Ain’t Easy

April 15, 2026

Although we had planned on being with Mom this week, we’re home instead. Life is full of unexpected twists and turns. It’s hard but we just have to accept that we are not in control.

It is my nature to rant and rave when things don’t go as I planned. Especially when I feel like I’m in the wrong place, not doing what I should be doing. . . spending this time with Mom.

But I know she loves me, even if right now she doesn’t always know who I am. And I know she would want me to take care of myself right now. And as soon as I feel better, we will see her again.

My message for you today is to never pass up a chance to say, “I love you”, to hug your loved ones, to be thankful for all the blessings God has provided.

James 4:14, “Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.”

Psalms 90:12, “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”

One more thing, always take the time to enjoy the flowers!
