[Still Raining]

Sorry to hear a novel heath event sent you off.  They do!  Wake-up calls are a bummer.  Hope all is better today.  Be easy on yourself 🌷

Remember when it rains it pours.  Also remember God only gives us what we can handle. Hang in there hopefully things will change for you.

@QVCkitty1 I am so sorry for you because sometimes it seems it just doesn't stop.  I always wish I had my aunt who is long gone near me then.  She would wrap her arms around me and say softly "Bless it's little heart" and give me the best hug and pray for me.  Wish I would do that for you now!!!!

no where in the Bible does God say He will only give us what we can handle. This is a human-constructed concept to make ourselves feel better. However. God does promise to be with us throughout all of our trials. He is steadfast. He hears our cries, answers all prayers. This is a comfort to me. I totally relate to your difficulties. Seems like in my 70s, my health took a dive and stuff continues to pop up. We cant change it. But I consider every day that I wake up, a win and a blessing.This forum allows us to connect with each other-to be supportive, sympathetic. It too is a small blessing.

I also took my good looks and health for granted.  Not now.

I was told in my teens not to have children and that Type 1 diabetes would take my life before I turned 40. So when I turned 73, with two wonderful children, I knew I was right to become a control freak, do everything humanly possible to stay alive and beat the odds. It hasn't been easy but I have so much to live for. I am humbled by the fact that although I wasn't blessed with good health I was given tenacity and refuse to allow myself to think why me.....

Prayers for you @QVCkitty1 . Live one day at a time, don't project and be well.💕💐

@smoochy  ,I too appreciate this forum. I discovered it one day at a particularly hard day at work. Our cafeteria had computers for staff and visitors to use. I had shopped QVC, but never explored online. Well I found the forum and reading it took me out of my bad mood, and I've been here ever since.

yes He does. The answer may not be the one you wanted instead it might be what you need. Maybe it's something that will bring you to greater dependence on Him. Sometimes it's hard to see the answers until later and we look back and realize it.
