How scary. I admire your faith and the faith of our family, especially Susan's. And when a trial, especially an unexpected one, is hard, that doesn't mean your faith is lacking. Faith doesn't necessarily make trials easier, but rather faith strengthens you enough to handle it the best way you can. If you ask me, your faith is rock solid.<br /><br />Love you. Love Susan. I'm praying.Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16096609209172158941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397651.post-11609164884495688072011-10-21T05:39:13.258-06:002011-10-21T05:39:13.258-06:00I'm so happy to have my laptop as my hospital ...I'm so happy to have my laptop as my hospital friend!<br /><br />Thank you for your comments and all of your friend's as well.<br /><br />I can tell you that the faith and prayers of many are strong. I have a real testimony of the united strength in prayers and I have felt great comfort in yours and those of your sweet extended family. I realize that I have not been required to suffer much on this earth, and this is most likely a small thing. I was feeling so low yesterday, but today I feel a bit better. Dad and I talked last night and I prayed that I would use good judgement in going forward. I've had just about every flippin test possible and I am exhausted with them...and usually discouraged when they all come back "normal". So last night I told the Lord that I had made a decision to go home today if my blood levels were stable from yesterday and the last few days. They have been prepared to give me several units more of blood, but haven't had to. I feel that I may need to locate a specialist to really diagnose this thing. I could go home for a few days and be more comfortable if my blood levels are good. I feel really good about my decision and am waiting for the blood results. I'm sure the Drs. won't be too pleased with me, but what else can they do?<br /><br />Sorry for such a personal comment, but my silly email has not been working and for the most part cannot be trusted to send, even though it shows "sent". <br /><br />I love you. Thank you for the prayers and faith you exhibit. I find great comfort in that. But I can't deny that I wish we lived next door. And I loved your friend's comment about Eva's tape. I think Bella could get in on that one too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15149387261086990177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397651.post-1272078364095525182011-10-19T07:37:44.461-06:002011-10-19T07:37:44.461-06:00Oh gosh~

I hope they are able to locate the problem quickly and get her all mended. I would hate to be so far away at a time like this.<br /><br />As a person who has weathered some heavy trials, I can tell you that the sick to your stomach feeling does not in any way mean that you have weak faith! The assurance that things will turn out in the end, and the ability to move on--that is evidence of your very strong faith. Hold to that. I know you can do anything and everything the Lord asks of you. You are amazing and strong!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04626706623891455872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397651.post-14398540364728755072011-10-17T11:31:09.340-06:002011-10-17T11:31:09.340-06:00Michelle - Sending prayers from Tennessee!

It doesn't mean we don't have faith, but I think you are wise to look into what your faith is based on and the kind of servant you want to be. We don't have control over much in this life, but we can choose to grow closer to the Lord in times of trial.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09032420498045893374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397651.post-42552116670383262792011-10-16T21:52:27.403-06:002011-10-16T21:52:27.403-06:00You're hardly fair-weathered Michelle. I thin...You're hardly fair-weathered Michelle. I think that initial clutch is a human reaction and not a reflection on our faith, but rather an indicator of our concern for others.<br /><br />I love the Old Testament prophets. Their lives and struggles mirror so many of our situations and give us an example of how to act. Abraham is certainly one to watch.<br /><br />Please keep us posted on your mom. I wish Eva's tape could fix her.Neighbor Jane Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11524394383695366513noreply@blogger.com
