Journey With Patina

Today I decided to head to the beach, to relax and take in the salt air and the sounds of the ocean waves.

God reminded me that it’s important to take time to breathe and take in the moment.  He sat me down and I’m grateful for moments like these: silence and peace in the midst of a storm.  I’m learning to embrace the time that He has given to me, to relax my mind and to embrace this moment.

This journey that God has me on, has been nothing short of amazing.  Let me tell you, battling breast cancer, dealing with the downsizing of the federal government (as a federal contractor), and the stress of living in this crazy world can feel overwhelming at times. But, the God that I serve told me to lean on Him.  I’m leaning like never before.  As I’m writing this blog, all I know is that I will continue to read the Word of God, listen to Him and find peace and comfort in Jehovah. 

If you decide to follow me on this journey, you’ll learn that I love the Lord, I’m a beach bum who loves to travel, and I’m a foodie.  I’m blessed to live less than an hour from the Virginia Beach oceanfront.  Today, as I write this blog, I’m sitting at one of my favorite places for lunch listening to the waves crash, and spending time with God. So peaceful.

Subscribe to my blog, as I plan to share:

1. What God reveals to me as I learn more about Him.
2. My travel experiences as a beach bum and everything between.
3. Food experiences because I’m a foodie, so who knows what I might share. Everything from gardening, to canning, to sharing my favorite foods and new food experiences.
4. Leaving through breast cancer treatment, my healing journey and life after.

For now, that’s all folks. Thanks for listening. Until next time, smooches.😘

XOXO
