Oh, Jess, thank you for your message today. I am currently in a nursing home and have been on and out of ones since July 2016 when I had surgery for a benign brain tumor. I was left with major balance issues and must use a wheelchair to get around. Several surgeries and problems since then have made me bed ridden and unable to even be in a wheelchair. But my wonderful husband spends as much time as possible here with me. I am really trying to bloom where I am planted right now.
Even though I long to be at home, to walk, to see my friends and family, I need to be content here right now. So, thanks for the reminder today. Much love to you and your whole family. ❤
Praying for you. God sees right where you are. ♥️
Oh my goodness Miss Jess! You just blessed me so much!!! I got all teared up with the scripture 1 Thess. 5:16-18!! That scripture speaks such life to me in the season I am!
I’m so glad!
I was shocked when you said it’s been over a year already!! I remember your angst during the prep for the move.
I also remember the beautiful response of your church there helping prep the house for you! I was so touched by that gesture.
Maybe God is wanting you to get beyond the “feelings”. I only say that because I RELATE! I’m not one of those Christians that are against feelings. I’m just saying I have relied on my feelings so much of my life. I have to work through my feelings and thoughts as well.
I’m really desiring my mind to be transformed and to be healed in my emotions.
I appreciate these Sunday lessons and shares. ❤ Keep it up!
Thank you for sharing your journey and the word of God.
Cooperate with God where we are. Great thought and lesson as well!
Always remember Abraham as well…he left everything to journey to a new land!
I also think God invites us to call upon Him and rely upon Him more than any part of ourselves… whether it’s our strength, knowledge, or feelings, etc.
Again, love these Sunday chats! ❤🎉❤
Thank you so much!
I moved one week ago and this could have been me speaking. I related to everything you said. I feel all alone with no friends. Don't know any of the neighbors. In fact, I've never seen any of my neighbors. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God has put me here, but I miss my old house, neighborhood and friends. I showed it to my husband and he finally understands how I feel. Thank you so much for posting this. I need to trust God more. He has this.
God’s got you. I’m believing He is going to help us both bloom right in the middle of these circumstances. Sending you a big hug!
You also nailed it there! GRATITUDE🎉
Needed this today! If I didn’t move from where I was, I wouldn’t have amazing neighbors who are Christian and who are like grandparents to me (and my dog). We help each other out and it’s been amazing. I try to think of all the good God has done during the times that I don’t fit in or feel lonely.
I love this!
I relate to the control portion as well.
As mommas, I think that is built into us. We try to prevent accidents etc for our kids. So in some respects, we wear ourselves out in preventive maintenance mode!!!
Yes!
Once again you made me stop and really think about my life and how I’m living it. I have a lot of work to do my friend! ❤
Me too! We keep on working on it, day by day.
This was awesome. So much to think about
♥️
A very good message for me today! Thank you!
You’re so welcome!
God is always in control even when we can't see or feel it.😊 I know I've definitely been there and still have days where my anxiety gets the best of me. I've been digging into God's word more and trying to keep my thoughts focused on Him and not my worries. ✝️
You are brave for sharing. I think you're an amazing woman! ❤
Amen!
Great job Jess. I’m sharing this to our church WOMENS group as we can all learn from what you’re saying. Fi, Scotland 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for sharing. ♥️
Jess I went through the same thing long time ago this brought back we moved 4 hours from my close grandchildren i was so involved in their life we only onew the pastor and his wife we minister in prison and nursing homes i was so miserable no babies i woeked also at a homeless ministery giving food close a place to sleep my kids were not good to come down there but in the summer we would have them stay 2 weeks at a time. My paster wife who also moved there gave me the scripture to say over an over then our youngest daughter an baby came an lived with us i was satisfied we lived there 13 years when we moved back home i lost all my friends my 3 oldest granddaughters were wearin makeup and had boyfriends it was hard but now i have 10 greatgrandkiddos. My live changed again i lost my wonderful husband im living. In a senior independent appartment in a strange city my youngest daughter lives here. I stay in my apartment alone all the time dont drive anymore my daughter takes me to appointment an shopping on thursdays. I miss my husband so much life is hard but every day i say that scripture about being content. I watch you everyday since you lived in GA i feel like you and David an kids are my family also❤❤
Thank you so much! Sending you a big hug!

I needed to hear this. Thank you for sharing.❤️
You are so welcome!!
I didn't realize how the rice fields can impact your health. The insects and the methane gas from the flooded fields can cause issues. Bloom where you are planted is a positive approach, but it doesn't mean you can't hope to better yourself by being transplanted in a different location. Take care!
We trust where God calls us, the choice is not ours. I can have contentment and security in that alone.
Thanks for this video today I wrote it all down . Do you have to move around every year or so? If so You know maybe God doesn’t want you to be content because it’s not a forever home he knows how you miss your friends and the places you have lived before and maybe that’s what going on because each time you are planted you grow with the place and the people and then it’s makes it hard to leave it each time . Prayers it gets better .
It just depends on Gods plan. We were at our first assignment for 6 years. Trusting Him where He has us is a daily choice.
I can relate. I had to come to terms with my health issues I’ve had since 2004. Breast cancer, blood clots in my lungs, a stroke, chronic daily migraines, a blood clot disease, and now fighting oral cancer since 2019 and 2023. Oh, I forgot the big one degenerative disc disease which has caused me to be bed bound and to use a wheel chair. However, God has drawn me so very close to him. I’m not as close to my kids and five grandkids. But I cover them in prayer. Loved your message. You will BLOOM. 🌸
Praying for you!
I needed this. Thank you for sharing.
Bless your heart.
Great message❤
Thank you!
Good morning
I want new friends too. I’m one that just wants one or two close friends. Preferably two. Lol😅
I have friends from childhood and one friend from a job we used to work at together but they all are in different states now. I moved away from home state and to another one. My kids and grandbabies are here which is my ❤. I would like a couple good friends though.
I’m also a widow…so no spouse. I’ll be 48 in Oct.
God sees and knows our heart’s desire!
❤❤
Love you, friend
Jess,
Thank you for talk today. I appreciate you sharing your daily life and struggles. It helps me as I travel through my own life journey. We moved from Cali to Ok and the transition was a challenge. The harder challenge was moving from our 1st OK home to the rural home we live in now. I love our home but struggle with feeling more alone as do not have connections with others as I did before. I feel we are here for a purpose however I feel you. I have enjoyed watching you daily for over 2 years. You are not far from me and yet I feel you in my heart as a special friend. Thank you for being you, an inspiration to me abd many others!❤Katy
Hugs! Thank you so much!
I haven’t felt that way when I am home alone in my apartment. When I travel I feel more like this isn’t home physically and mentally it’s exhausting. I knew from a young age living independently was what I wanted. I don’t have a close relationship with my family except for my mom so that may be why this feels like home to me and I feel less at home when I am not. I only have one friend that lives in Tucson Az we have been friends for 25 years.
I need this today
Sending you a big hug
Morning ❤. Amen sista I am in the same season as you it’s taking me a looooong time I’m still not feeling like home it’s been 3 yrs 😏 I know God has a plan I know but what is it ?
Keep trusting even when you cannot see that plan. Hugs. ♥️
This was wonderful Jess! Thank you again for being so vulnerable. I relate to all of this and have some good things to think about this week. ❤. I will continue to pray for you!
Thank you so much ♥️
Amen 🙏 your message of today was very helpful and powerful for some of us who had similar situations.♥️🙏
I’m so glad
