Praying, Praying!!

Totally continuing to pray!! God is good, and I believe His hand is upon this situation!!! Plz keep us updated!! Im excited to hear how awesome Gods blessings are going to be distributed in this situation!!!!

Please keep us posted Exo! Im so sorry to hear you are going through such a thing. This must be so hard on the whole family! I pray that God will bless and protect all of you (even protecting your mom from her own self). I pray for His wisdom and discernment to be given to the Drs. I pray for Gods healing balm to be upon your entire family. I feel strongly that this scripture will manifest in all of your lives: Isaiah The Good News of Salvation 61 “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, Because the Lord has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, And the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn, 3 To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” 4 And they shall rebuild the old ruins, They shall raise up the former desolations, And they shall repair the ruined cities, The desolations of many generations. 5 Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, And the sons of the foreigner Shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. 6 But you shall be named the priests of the Lord, They shall call you the servants of our God. You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, And in their glory you shall boast. 7 Instead of your shame you shall have double honor, And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double; Everlasting joy shall be theirs. 8 “For I, the Lord, love justice; I hate robbery for burnt offering; I will direct their work in truth, And will make with them an everlasting covenant. 9 Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles, And their offspring among the people. All who see them shall acknowledge them, That they are the posterity whom the Lord has blessed.” 10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. 11 For as the earth brings forth its bud, As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth, So the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

AMEN ASTRA!!!! This was so thoughtful and sweet of you!

Thank you Deborah, Cholette, and Astra! You are all HUGE blessings in my life!!!!!

Interesting thread. Yes I have also had secular songs speak to my heart! God can use even unbelievers to speak to us, if we are open to hear what He is speaking. Music is an amazing tool. For me, music can really motivate and inpire me. I love the song by Goapele, 'Closer to my dreams'. It inspires me to know that even though I dont think there is movement in my circumstances...each day God is getting us closer to our goals. Its interesting to me as well, even if a song is extremely worldly...oftentimes if you listen with your spirit man, you can hear the heart cry of the world in the message of the song...looking for that true love that only Chirst can give.

o wow! 3k?? Yikes!!! Since I am improving, I feel as if I am on the right track. I did remake my apt with the nuerologist for this thurs. Im not sure if I will have an mri done or not, depending on how Im feeling, and if I continue to improve. I can always set up the apt and cancel it if I keep doing well. Thanks for your advice on the cream!!! Knowing that REALLY helps!! =) Will keep everyone posted.

Well Yes, thanks for asking Deborah. I went to the holistic dr first, and felt so good after talking with her that I cancelled the nuerologist apt. I have waited this long to go in to the neurologist whats another week or two. The tests the neurologist will run will def cost me at least $1-2 thousand dollars (that we dont really have). So she was able to see I was low on B's, iron, and other minerals. She took me off dairy wheat and soy. She has me eating real healthy. She also has a bunch of vitamins and minerals specifically suited for me. I brought my old supplements into her, and she explained to me why my body wasnt able to break down. Basically, they were very low quality. Within taking two doses of the new vitamins on THE FIRST DAY, I was sleeping like a baby at night. I have had 10 consecutive GREAT NIGHTS of sleep, uninterrupted with the exception of last night. It is my time of the month, and she thinks it could be a possiblity that I could be low on progesterone. If this is the case, it would explain a whole lot, especially bc this time of the month I seem to have more muscle spasms and interrupted sleep more than ever. Overall, I have been feeling much much better. Once I have a whole month of proper nutrition and supplementation, if the symptoms continue then I would go to the nuerologist. I really think that since things have improved so drastically, that we are def onto something. I cant tell you the last time I have had 10 nights of uninterrupted sleep!!! Its been almost a year I think! At first I thought it was my heart racing and waking me...but I have found that it was actually slight muscle spasms in my neck and shoulders. I would feel this often times a night, mostly right after slipping off to sleep waking me. Once I would fall back asleep, it would once again wake me within a half hour or so. Some nights more often than others, especially when I was on my period. Im a little hesitant to add natural progesterone into my diet...but it certainly seems like this could be what Im dealing with. I have looked it up and I have half the symptoms of low progesterone. Im only in my late 30's though, thats the thing that stumps me. My mom did go through menopause young, in her late 30's, but she simply stopped having periods after getting one of those 'deppo birth control shots'. She just never had another period ever again. I dont even want to think about menopause yet! I still have little ones at home. I really appreciate any prayers or feedback you may have. Hopefully I have not shared to much information on here. I apoligize to any males reading this. I dont want to forget to give all GLORY to God, for helping me hopefully figure this out!! I feel like Im on the right road, and I give Him all the Glory and Honor (not the Dr's)!!! He is merciful and loving!!! He also gives us His wisdom to figure out whats going on in times like this!

exo Im so sorry to hear this. Im praying as well. Im going to pm you something on my heart. You may or may not be able to respond quite yet, bc a new member needs to have a certain amount of posts to send a private message. You will though be able to read my message though. I hope all the best for your family. Please keep us posted on this issue.

thanks angelwings!

Amen Astra! Thank you for your encouragement! You are seriously such a jewel!

Thank u so much Astra! I am so grateful for ur prayers!

Hello my faithful brothers and sisters in The Lord! I have been experiencing some concerning symptoms in my body recently. These symptoms have been keeping me from sleeping soundly at night. I have been having muscle spasms in my neck and shoulders consistently waking me at night, and irritating me during the day. I have also been having spasms in my arms and legs as well. Not sleeping at night has effected my energy level the following day. I got bloodwork done, and all my bloodwork looks amazing! This is good news one one end, but I was hoping it was an easy fix, hoping it was just a vitamin deficiency that could easily be fixed from supplements. I have two apts tomorrow. One with a Neurologist to rule out anything serious. I have been dragging my feet on this one bc of fear, and lack of funds. I don't expect an answer by tomorrow from him, but an overview of what our next steps will be on researching these symptoms. Im very hopeful that these symptoms are simply a result of the great amounts of stress that have been in my life recently...but want to be certain. I also have an apt with a holistic dr tomorrow morning as well. Most likely she will have dietary suggestions for me to adjust. Please agree in prayer with me for good reports from all of them!!! Thank you in advance!!!

Thanks for praying! Let me tell you, Gods grace was so ever present in this situation. The nerve was exposed, so she needed not one but TWO root canals in her front two teeth. She needed TWO crowns as well! She did SO good, and was so brave! Our insurance covered 100% of the root canals and 50% of the crowns. The dentist said anything over our maximum he would write off! What favor! So it costed us about $800, but it could have been close to $3,000!!!!! She will need new crowns in a couple years, when her teeth continue to grow in under the crowns. Then she will need a new set of crowns right before senior pics when she is 17. Lastly, at 25 she will need one more set and that should do her good for a while! What an expensive freak accident! Im thankful she didn't break her nose, or loose and eye or a limb though. I have to be thankful, it could've been much worse!

My sweet daughter knocked her two front teeth with a stupid pogo stick today! They are both permanent teeth, and seriously are BOTH chipped to the point that they are BOTH half missing!!! She was so traumatized from this event! I feel so horrible for her! Both dentists I spoke to said that since its a sunday, we will have to wait until first thing in the morning. PLEASE PRAY for my sweet girl, and that the appointment tomorrow goes super smooth. I have been told if the nerve is exposed (which most likely it is, since its broken extremely high up and very senstive to air and cold), that we may have to wait a whole week before we can get them bonded!!! I really dont think she will go to school with the way they look right now!! I feel so bad for her! I pray that its not a painful thing to fix, and am hopeful that they can do it right away!!! Plz agree with me. Thank you faithful brothers and sisters!!!!

Amen! Praying as well! Plz update us! Believing for a GREAT report!

praise God!!!!!!
