Heart & Home link-up

I'm so blessed that my youngest son loves to get creative in the kitchen;

last week he decided to raid my pantry while he was visiting me.. 

and whipped together a little something for us to have with our cuppa.

It was all apple-y and cinnamon-y and very very yummy!!

We had it hot with greek yoghurt and it was perfect for warming us on that chilly day.

He was not a well boy at the time ..he'd torn muscles in his neck and upper back which prevented him from sitting or laying down let alone working.

So what better way to help take his mind off his pain and discomfort than something delicious straight from the oven?!

He saw our physiotherapist the next day and gained some welcome relief and a set of exercises to do to loosen up the tautness in his back.

He's like his dad..carries all his stress in his neck and upper spine :-(

This time it was his un-natural daily posture of having his head always bent downward due to work needs,

 combined with a bad shoulder strain he got while chopping the wood for his fire.

Put them together and- voila!- one young man with a badly frozen neck and back!

I was glad to have his company (and cooking!) but it was frustrating for me to see him in pain and not be able to help.

He couldn't bear the slightest pressure on his neck or shoulders which I was longing to massage for him,

but sometimes we mother's just have to leave things to the experts who know what to do for the best.

He's healing up and feeling much better this week, praise the Lord!

Makes me think of all the things in my life that I need an Expert to handle for me..

Oh, I often need to call on Him and trust that whatever it is that I'm struggling with,

whatever I must do but simply can't do on my own or in my own strength...HE CAN!!

God is my "physio" and "spirito" therapist.

 He always knows how to stretch me back in shape and apply just the right amount of pressure on the exact points in my situation that need His reforming power!

And He does it purposefully and masterfully and so lovingly.

All I have to do is get up on His table and let Him take over!

How about you, my friends...

Do you find yourself needing a little help from an Expert, too?

If you do..I can highly recommend One  ;-)
