Hi Nancy, Claire, Tea and Chrissie and All,
You're words are very encouraging. It is very important to keep this in the forefront of one's mind. It also helps to have individuals in one's life that can help us see the good and to be reminded of the blessings. The HCAF is a blessing and everyone who comes to this site is a blessing.
I heard a phrase that will always stick in my mind that I do not believe I have shared on here yet. It says, that if you complain you remain and if you praise you raise. It also reminds me of what someone once said about being in a state of gratefulness because gratitude attracts .
Yes, illness can be discouraging, but there are always silver linings and like Claire said, the Lord knows the good He has planned for us. He can also turn what was meant for bad into good, like he did for Joseph.
May God bless you all, Nezhla
