I am sorry that I have not posted anything in a while but it has been a long couple months for me it seems like. I will quickly say that my little sister is a joy to have at home and as for as my condition, I don't have much that is new. I continue to have pain throughout the day and night and we are still praying as to where to go next. I have been to a chiropractor a couple days ago and we are going to go back because it looks as though there is something there that might help. You could be in prayer as this seems to be getting longer and longer ( which it is;) but it is tiresome and discouraging.
But my family has been very encouraging by praying with me and for me and reminding me of verses in God's word.
A couple weeks ago when I was studying the book of Isaiah in the Bible, a lot of them had the promise of God's Redeemer and of his love and grace and forgiveness to give to us. I then would go to other promises in the Bible and they have encouraged me quite a bit.
I have to say that this pain brings me down emotionally some times but I have learned how to trust God with prayer even though he has not taken it away. One of my favorite verses in Psalm 66:20
"Praise be to God who has not rejected my prayers nor with held his love for me." I have to remind myself that when I feel like God is not listening that he truly is and is keeping his promise but is answering it in his will. He has had this planned since the beginning of time. Jeremiah 29:11
" For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD. " Plans to to prosper you and not to harm you., plans to give you hope and a future." I can't say that I would have wanted to change what I have learned. Hopefully I will find some more time to post more but for now this is all.
