2:51:19 PM | I have found through having this disease what truly is important in life. How the small things that used to bother me, now do not. I have learned to relax more and take care of myself and my body. I used to be SO addicted to sugar and junk food. I'd eat a small meal just to get to the dessert- I was raised w/ twinkies and ding dongs and dessert after every meal. I am sure that played a big role in the anxiety I had growing up and really until now. Also, I am more sensitive to those with illnesses and diseases. I used to have such a fear of diseases, not anymore.
Most importantly I am learning what it truly means to TRUST God. I am finally truly growing in my relationship with the Lord- moving from the milk phase to the meat :). And we can't afford cable so I am learning to do other things then watching tv and I am much more careful now with what I allow in my life. There are a lot of bad things on tv and what we watch effects us more then we realize.
So even though this has been so hard and I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy or my ex husband more like it :) (I don't really have enemies), there has been some good. I have found in life that no matter how bad something looks if you look really hard you will find something good in it.
OH and I have made some wonderful friends too :) !
So please be encouraged- God loves you so much! He has a purpose and plan for every one of our lives- He believes in you ! Kim |
