Series: Time to Rebuild

​​A lot of you may know at least parts of my story by now. Four years ago I was on a leave of absence from my career as an orthopedic designer because I was having panic/anxiety attacks, low blood pressure, and low blood sugar - my body was just broken. My marriage was broken. I seemed to
be far from God. All of that is what kicked off the journey that I am on now. Fast forward two years...

​I was getting better physically, I had started my blog, I was moving forward and trying to connect with God but my marriage was still broken. So many areas in my life needed rebuilding. I recently read through the book of Nehemiah and I kept wishing I had done so four years ago - the rebuilding could have been so much easier! But we all have to go through challenges and we grow from them.
​
I’d like to share the lessons I learned about rebuilding from Nehemiah as he worked to rebuild Jerusalem, over the next several days. Hopefully by sharing this I can provide some encouragement as you go through your own rebuilding and offer some insight that I think would have been helpful to me!
​
Throughout the remainder of this week, be encouraged to follow along as we dig into the following lessons from Nehemiah: be aware of and accept the breakdown when it happens, petition resources from God, be cautious in who we share our journeys with and when, stay focused on our own rebuilding process and our personal outcomes, we need each other, rebuild with enthusiasm, guard our clarity and endurance, God has given us a gift in His word, others will take notice, remember that the joy of the Lord is our strength, once we rebuild celebrate with joy and thanksgiving, and pray God keep us from falling back into old habits or mindsets.

I look forward to exploring these areas further with you. As always, feel free to send me a message and leave a comment if these words of encouragement are speaking to you.

Take care and God bless!
