MDJunction to me

"When I first came to MDJ, I was in need of peer support in dealing with issues of my childhood abuse. I was moving away from the painful issues and trying to find an uplifting group of people to help me transition to a thriver in my life. I found that here. I also found a group of peers with Fibromyalgia and found the same uplifting experience there. My computer crashed and it was a while before I found my way back, this time with issues related to Parkinson's Disease. I had tried a few other support sites before reminding myself of MDJ. On those, I never got a reply. I finally found my way back here and again found very supportive, caring and inspiring people who made me feel like I was 'back home'. Indeed I am." (ThereseML)

Life Is a Gift

Today before you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't speak.

Before you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone who has nothing to eat.

Before you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone who's crying out to GOD for a companion.

Today before you complain about life - Think of someone who went too early to heaven.

Before you complain about your children - Think of someone who desires children but they're barren.

Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or sweep - Think of the people who are living in the streets.

Before whining about the distance you drive - Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.

And when you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another - Remember that not one of us is without sin and we all answer to one MAKER.

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on your face and thank GOD you're alive and still around.

I thought this was very powerful and this really made me think and I thought I would pass it on!

We cannot complain about the cross we bear but, don't realize it is preparing us for the big dip in the road that God can see and we cannot.

Whatever your cross, Whatever ur pain,

there will always be sunshine, after the rain.

Perhaps u may stumble, perhaps even fall,

But God's always ready, to answer ur call.

He knows every heartache, sees every tear,

a word from his lips, can calm every fear.

Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night,

But Suddenly vanish, by dawn's early light.

The savior is waiting, somewhere above,

to give you His grace, and send you his love.

May God fill your day with blessings!!
