A few years ago my morning routine changed. No more jumping out of bed, and going for a run or a long walk. Now I\u2019m hopeful to make it downstairs for coffee! My left hip is the culprit. What used to be a constant popping, evolved into a catch and today is a painful, stiff joint that\u2019s annoyingly limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even with lots of stretching, I\u2019ve been forced to slow down and accept help. My family, who\u2019s watched me run around doing whatever I wanted for years, has quietly stepped up\u2026 offering assistance -wonderfully patient and encouraging. I\u2019m so thankful for each one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I feel discouraged over what I can\u2019t<\/em> do I focus on Jesus who chose<\/strong> to be enormously limited. Leaving heaven for earth, He took on sinful human flesh (Romans 8:3) and willingly suffered at the hands of men for those very sins and all others. (John 3:16) Talk about submission!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus is my Guide as I learn to live gracefully with restriction. He offers me mercy along with patience, humility and perseverance. Hopefully I’m growing good fruit. Old hymns and lots of prayer keep me pushing forward\u2026 currently to the gym 3x a week with my trainer-son, who\u2019s teaching me what I CAN-do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have strength for all things in the One strengthening me.<\/em><\/strong> Philippians 4:13 -Anna <\/p>\n\n\n\n
