Now, I myself believe in God. If you do not know him I wish I could introduce you to Him. But I do not think I could describe His ability to take what is wrong and make it right. I just am not that talented.

I wish I could let you see how He had acted in impossible situations and brought glory from dust. How did He deliver the condemned from the hands of fate -- but I do not know how to tell you.

I wish I could make you see those that were cold stone dead, that he had brought to life with a word, but I am nothing and I can not put together words that would capture the beauty of His actions.

Damn, I wish I could let you see my God for who He is.

He never gives up. He never stands down. He never gives in. And, I love him, He never sleeps. He is eternally relentless.

Join me. I am a God follower.

Reach, Dream, Believe.

I can and you can too.

Just believe and it will be given to you.

This is a great post. I am a believer, but at times it is very difficult when we suffer as we do. And not only from the pain, but from the financial problems and ongoing stress. I try to stay positive and believe that God has a plan. I just don;t know what that plan is. I know He is at work, cause today, my 18 year old son who has recently moved to Virginia to be with my Dad until I can get my SSDI and go myself, actually made a deposit into my checking account to cover the cost of one of my prescriptions I needed and could not afford to get. He left himself with only $20 for the next 2 weeks. God is sending me the help . He has blessed me with a truly wonderful son.

I have to tell you, you talk so much like my husband. I confronted him about some of the replies along the sites. I thoughyt maybe he was going to "slip" God in here in bits and places useing a psudonym. But, you said damn, and then I knew it wasn't him. That one word may have saved an argument!!

Keep the faith.

And all - forgivve the spelling and not responding. Getting test reselta and so far NOT GOOD. will tall about t hat subject when I can.

Like your style RK. (which by the way are my husbands initials).

Blessings to each and every one of you.

I have faith that God will pull me through this and give me the strength I need when I feel like I can't go on.

When I was 17 I couldn't hold anything down for 11 days. I was starving to death. My kidneys had crystals and I had sludge around my liver. Sorry but, my urine was black.

The doctors finally diagnosed me with IBS and no one knew if I would make it. At one point my mom started crying in front of me and I sat up in a panic and asked, "am I dieing?" She told me no that she was just scared.

Finally I couldn't take the pain of starvation anymore so I cried out to the only one I knew could help me, I said, "God either make me better or take me, but don't leave me here like this." I meant this with all my heart and God saw that it was to much for me.

The next morning I could eat and felt fine.The next day I went home

God is always listening and he truelly knows when we can't take it anymore.

Lol, I forgot to mention that I was in the hospital.I stayed there for five days.
