Deb,

Let me pass along a little secret I use when things

get to be too much. (when my husband was fighting this

disease, I used it regularly) I was always taught and

believe that the Lord never gives us more than we can

handle BUT there have been many times when I have had

to say, " okay, Lord, this is enough, I absolutely

cannot take anymore right now " . And ya know what, it

has always worked for me; not that they necessarily

got better, but I had the strength to handle whatever

it was.

Hugs & Prayers,

H

I'll try THAT approach, ...thanks for sharing!!

Sometimes I think He's not listening...he's off at an Origami class or

something. LOL NOt being disrespectful here, just wondering sometimes...

Narice told me a great line this afternoon and now I can't remember it....

knew I should write it down...tell everyone Narice, please!!

Lots of hugs and prayers, Donelle

Oh ok Well about 5 years ago Phil and I were at our synod convention and

this seminary professor was talking about how people in the Bible got

overwhelmed too.

And that he could just imagine Moses and the prophets praying

God I know you can hear me so will you please get off you Divine butt and DO

something.

Well you put a group of pastors or religious folk together and it isn't

always reverent I guess

this guy had us in stitches!

Rest assured God hears our prayers Donelle our miracle is coming just taking

the scenic route.

Dear Deb,

I am very sure the Good Lord knows where the prayers are needed in your family

and I am sure he knows the one you never ask for (yourself). Bless you woman.

ENOUGH is enough , not cancer but UGH

OK dang it doesnt He realize we are in need of some GOOD things once in

awhile, I agree with Narice about mistaken my behind for my shoulders , i need

to go on diet , because apparently HE thinks I am strong enough to cope with all

of this UGH

neurosurgeon , she had an MRI done Saturday and there is a pocket of fluid under

her incision ,

, infection or what EGADS I dont even know which one to pray for

Thanks

The singer, Tori Amos, has a song that I love. Two of the lines are:

God, sometimes you just don't come through

Do you need a woman to look after you?

Irreverant? Yes. But sort of speaks to me for those times when God seems far

away.

Whenever I think the Lord is taking too long to answer a prayer, I am

always reminded that sometimes we may not like how He answers them..

Also more humorously think of that song by Garth -- I think it is

called Thank God for unanswered prayers. I think sometimes

we need to think about that, cause He can't always answer prayers they

way we would like. We have to trust that since he is the higher power

that he knows what is best for us and our loved ones and we have to keep

our faith that it will all work out eventually and we should always

remember Not my will O Lord but Thine!. God Bless Jolene
