I find myself today having to decide whether I will choose to have a good attitude or go with what I am feeling and be a little ok..... alot blue. You see when you are sick there are days that you get frustrated. Frustrated that there is a whole world going on around you and today I felt like even if I screamed at the top of my lungs no one could hear me. ( of course not everyone was gone and I was alone in my house) :). For this reason my wonderful mom gave me a day to gain perspective or rather put it on the Lord and be alone. My picc line is acting up so I go in tomorrow and have it looked at and possibly redone. It hurts every time i infuse something.
I was thinking at the end of this day with my restless heart and I realized of all the things I can do...... Help raise my two beautiful children that even though I am sick do not hold it against me but help me. Be in love with a husband that helps me and works so hard and is my best friend. Have friendships that are more then getting together but tied by the fact that our Savior is the bond that holds us tight. And love the Lord Jesus and let Him use this to change me and others. You see I have a good outcome where it might not have been but the key in whatever comes is Be still and KNOW that I AM GOD. He loves each one of us so much that his love story is worth going through to be His bride alone.
So to all who have prayed, cleaned, shopped, hugged and given in a variety of ways thank you. You are all loved and deeply appreciated and missed. I look forward to being able to be around everyone but right now and always the truth is the Lord is enough.
I had to choose what we are all working on instilling in our children to obey and make the right choice regardless of how we feel.
Be still and Know that I am God....... I love that. because the problem was I was not being still.
Thanks for listening!

Hang in there, honey. I know yesterday was rough, and you are were very missed as we worked on costumes. But one of these days, you'll be able to join us. In the meantime, please know that we're praying for you, that the Lord will use this time in your life for His glory. It is hard (for me anyway) to yield to His will when it's painful and lonely, but you're right, He IS enough...and wants to show us that. He longs to fulfill every need that you have, Anne.
Praying that today is a better day, even though it's grey and gloomy outside!
You are on my mind and in my prayers! I'm so glad you are able to let us know how you're doing. Keep hanging onto the Lord! You are such an encouragement to me.
Love you Anne. Benny and I pray for you every day in the morning.
We miss seeing you but, I know that the Lord is working an amazing work in and through you. Thank you for your encouragement, prayers and attitude. You are a wonderful example to me to praise the Lord and trust Him in hard times.
Love you.
"Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow. Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside.
Great is Thy faithfulness, Great is Thy faithfulness, morning by morning new mercies I see. All I have needed Thy hand hath provided. Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord unto me."
