✨Trust The Journey✨




✨Sometimes God takes you on a journey you didn't know you needed, to bring you everything you ever wanted.✨ 


✨A cancer diagnosis isn’t anything I ever wanted but I got it and as weird as this may sound it’s been a kind of blessing ✨


✨My diagnosis has brought me and Keith closer than ever and it completely transformed our relationship with God ✨


✨My healing journey has taught me so much about what our bodies are capable of and the power of healing.   I’ve been able to share the things I’m learning with others.✨


✨With my renewed relationship with God I have also learned a lot about forgiveness; forgiving myself and others.  This is a powerful thing to be able to do.  We hear of the transformative power of forgiveness and that it’s good to practice unconditional love. Yet, to actually be able to do these things for those who have hurt, harmed or betrayed us is often quite challenging and can test our ability to do so.✨


✨I have found that forgiveness is liberating and healing for me. I also have found that instead of hating or wishing harm to another that hurt me, praying for their healing and transformation is far more powerful and ensures that I’m not creating more negativity in my life.✨


✨We don’t have to allow anyone who is deceitful or abusive in our lives. We do not have to tolerate “drama” or division. We can disengage and not allow certain people in our lives - and we can also choose to pray for them, knowing that it’s crucial for more people to experience healing so we may create a safer, healthier, happier space for those are directly and indirectly in our lives✨


✨I will also add that there are times when more serious actions must be taken. We can still pray for these people while also supporting the appropriate measures to ensure justice.✨


✨Often there are things that happen in our life that are beyond our control. We can suddenly experience shifts and changes in our lives. People can come or go in an instant. We may be drawn to or away from certain things. Doors open and others close. ✨


✨We may not understand why things are moving and changing our lives, yet there can be very important things happening “behind the scenes”. This is when leaning on your faith is so important ✨


✨Although we are powerful creators and we can co-create with God, often there are times when we are called to totally surrender to the shifting currents and trust the changes that He is  making. It’s a dance of sorts - learning to gracefully move with the changing tides and other times we direct the flow. Ultimately, it’s a call to greater faith and trust.✨


✨As we learn to flow in faith and trust, we come to realize everything is happening to bring us what we truly want and need. God is always working in our favor and often it’s just a matter of time until we understand why we went through what we did.✨


✨ Lastly, I have faith in the good things that are coming because I know that they are….trust the journey ✨


I’ll close this post with a verse that God put on my heart today.

 

Mark 11:24(NKJV)

Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.


Until next time….keep joy in your mind and in your heart!


Much love and many blessings,

Ali

Ain’t Life Grand….living life on the right side of cancer 💕

Greetings from beautiful Wyoming! Hidden Falls - Jenny Lake / Grand Teton National Park  A quick update before I get into it - I moved all my blogs to a new platform and it’s so much better now (at least for me).  Please let me know your thoughts, I appreciate your feedback 🩷.  Ok, here we go!!  Some of you may be following along on our journey via facebook but for those of you who aren’t, here’s a quick update.   We kicked off our nomadic journey on March 11, 2025 (after living full-time in the RV since September 2024) and this has quite literally been the best thing we have ever done.    Keith and I keep asking each other why we didn’t do this sooner.    It all comes back to - it just wasn’t our time yet.    But here we are now and we are absolutely living our best life!  Workamping is a real thing - real companies do in fact hire people who live full-time in their RV for seasonal work.    We landed an awesome job ...

Merry Christmas!

Luke 2:11 (NKJV) For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord I have so much to be thankful for this year.  I give all of my love and glory to Jesus every day but especially today, on His birthday!  He poured His blessings over me this year, He was true and faithful and never abandoned me.  I was shown first hand that all of God’s promises truly are “Yes” and “Amen” (2 Corinthians 1:20) At the start of this year I was just finishing up the first 90 days of my holistic healing program.  I was determined to beat the cancer and I had it set in my heart to do it holistically.  With God’s strength and His grace I was motivated and determined to stay on course.  I was thankful to be over that first 90 day hurdle but I was still facing so much uncertainty. I kept myself centered and focused on the goal….I kept my mind on Christ and He showed me the way!  Every decision or change I made was done so with prayer and wit...

Grateful Nomads🫶🏼✌🏼

One year ago today I started the life saving journey that I never imagined I would be going on.  I made what some might consider crazy radical changes, but I did it because I wanted to live.  Now here we are, one year later, making more radical life changes.  Sometimes life brings in twists and turns that take us in a completely different direction.  It happened to Keith and I last year (with my cancer diagnosis) and it’s happening again with our latest adventures.  If you haven’t heard yet, we sold our house and basically everything in it.  We bought a new truck and a RV and we’re hitting the road, living full time in the RV.  We went from a 1600 sq ft house to a 32 ft travel trailer…talk about radical changes 😳🤣 2024 Grand Design Imagine - Our new home! Here are a few things I’ve learned so far over the past year and especially these past few months.  We don’t always see these twists and turns coming but they always cause us to leave behind on...
