From: D Q To: MSersLife Sent: Thu, May 26, 2011 12:11:14 PM Subject: Re: Catching up that's so wonderful Sharon~ prayer is difficult to be consistent with for me. I often spend too much time analyzing things and analyzing myself which interferes with the just 'do it' that would make more sense. I don't often listen to June Hunt but she caught my attention with her topic yesterday. She mentioned in there somewhere that she may not have as much of a 'feeling' of love for God as many people there that just have it pouring out of them (very paraphrased) but she was secure in her salvation and relationship with the Lord. She points toward past hurts and events that have left her guarded or effected her expression of feelings or something like that...but it made me think about the fact that I believe I am saved, I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, however the 'feelings' of closeness or a relationship isn't felt inside like I admire in others. I have a hard time realizing the issue of Christ dying for me as an individual...that it is something like going to a concert with thousands of people and saying the singer knows me, sees me, and is there just for me...as an individual. I am one that won't fight to be seen, won't push to the front, rather the opposite. This is a big interference for me on the front of spirituality. What denomination are you? I hope you don't mind me asking~ Dee From: Sharon To: MSersLife Sent: Thu, May 26, 2011 12:34:05 PM Subject: Re: Catching up Dee Does your daughter have endometriosis? I know there can be more painful menstruation with that. Just a thought since the cramping is a new thing for her. Prayer is such an individual thing, isn't it? I love to go to church and say the prayers with the congregation. But mostly my prayer is my own. As a family we always say a prayer before every meal. I pray at bedtime and if I wake up during the night I sometimes pray. When I say to someone on this group that I will pray for them I usually mean I actually pray for blessings for them and say their name. I also ask in prayer for blessings for everyone I said I will pray for. That covers me when my MS-memory issues affect me:) lol s hug Sharon This email is a natural hand made product.

From: D Q To: MSersLife Sent: Wed, May 25, 2011 7:06:35 PM Subject: Re: Catching up wow, what a flavorful dinner you had! thank you for the prayers. I have to ask cause there's always lots of prayers go up. How is that process for you, any of you really, to lift others up in prayer? is it a stop and go through the list type of thing...or do you just lift them up and keep them on your heart so to speak? I only ask because sitting still is a daunting task, topped with remembering who everyone is and what the issue was to lift up in prayer. My heart goes out to all of you, the way you plug along, the way you lighten the issues you're experiencing. I know it is a lot about coping, loving, and reaching out...I also know that the two and a half months of chronic level 8+/- was nearly more than I could bare as I hadn't had the pain issues, only numbness. Had to laugh when my daughter mentioned that she now at 23 gets "cramps"...that before her friends would be struggling and she'd say she was so sorry but she just hadn't any idea what that was like...I hate you they'd jest...well now she gets the cramps that nauseates you and make you want to hide under a blanket for a few days. I suppose before I had the pain episode I was in a similar quandary. Now, with just that small but horrific experience that had me at my worst mental state ever, I am amazed at the way you guys generally push on forwards. thank you for that, all of you. Blessings and calm be with you through your hard times that try your strength.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 Sharon, A bit late once again.. got behind.. why is it that when one thinks they are all caught up and can now keep on top of things.. something else grabs attention and becomes the central point for awhile....and then... oops... I'm behind again? The area of the foot... Plantar possibly?... I know that I did some research on some foot pain has... it was called Plantar Fascitis... and his pain is always in the part of the foot you described..
