    It is so good! By Asheritah Ciuciu. Not a diet or exercise book but a reliance on Jesus. I've bought and read literally hundreds of diet books and this one is by far the best for changing mind set.

I'm back.... with Bible Giveaways

Image
Hello. I've hinted on my Instagram (@justcommonly) that I'm in the process of coming back after years away from blogging.  @justcommonly I had the very intention to be posting within a week of the first hint.  Yet life is full of surprises. As I was trying to reinstate my original blog (Just Commonly), I, unfortunately, had multiple technical issues due to the time length the blog was deactivated. Once I had it up and running, several "reports" had Google banned certain old posts, and eventually the blog itself. At this point, I had seriously doubted if it means I should just forget about it. Was my blog that bad and/or offensive that it was reported for malicious content and Google violations?  I submitted a review request, with the response that the blog link was no longer available to be reactivated.

How did you choose your current Bible? Is this your first Bible?  I'll get into how I chose my current Bible, at least my main one. First, I would like to explain why I needed a new one. It all started with my determination to focus on reading the Bible if that's the only reading (and accomplishment) I get done in the day.  Since my migraine became chronic, reading had become unbearable for a variety of reasons associated with the symptoms.  This includes reading the Word, let alone studying it. In truth, there was a huge spiritual warfare going on during the time. That's another focus for another day.  My Bible has been with me for years. I loved everything about it, and to be unable to read it, I was frustrated and lost. Then an epiphany came on a lucid morning. By this time, I had already transition to mostly analog - physical planners, notebooks, minimal screen time on tablet, no TV and back to basic with my smart phone - mainly for calls and text between...

Migraine is a disabling disease that affects 37 million people in the United States.

Take 15 minutes to watch the video below to get a better understanding of what is a migraine.   For more info, you can get more information from the following organizations: American Headache Society American Migraine Foundation Migraine.com Migraine Research Foundation Readers here will know my sporadic schedule has been ongoing for the past year since I was first diagnosed with migraines. About several months ago, it has progressed and officially diagnosed as chronic migraines. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a goo...
