Hiya all I haven't been on here for about a week. I have been pretty much laid up and taking it easy. I suffer from fybromyalgia and sometimes whether it be stress or hormone related, it can take me out for many days at a time. I am booked into see my specialist in Sydney in 4 weeks time. Although the pain has eased tremendously, I am still not 100%. The pain is concerntrated in my neck and shoulders, and it can be unbearable and I am unable to take pain relief for it. I have been very blessed having my Beloved lift me up constantly throughout each day during this horrid time. Some days I just felt like giving up, but he was there holding me up to the Father when I didn't have the strength myself. What a great husband he is going to make! I would appreciate your prayers over the next month as I wait to see what the specialist has to say. I am beliveing for the Lord to restore me back to health, physically and emotionally like He promises His . Blessings to you dear friends, Louise The body of Christ is like a patchwork quilt! All stitched together with God's love. |

Hi Louise, Sorry to hear about the fibromyalgia I have friends with that and I know how debilitating it can be. To encourage you go read Deborah's post [post 134311] she did this week. Blessings lovely, Kaye  One thing I have desired of the Lord, that will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple. Psalm 27:4

OMGosh, I have suffered from fibro since I was in my twenties. You and I really have alot in common. And I wondered if I'd ever meet anyone who really could love me like I am. God sent him to me. I am still amazed that he would not mind that I am down alot. I went through alot of emotional pain in a marriage where I was always a disappointment to my spouse. Or so he made me feel. 10 yrs of it. (And I helped raise his daughter and bought horses, and trained her to train horses...alot of work) I thought I'd rather be alone than ever feel like that again. That has been my biggest trust issue. Thomas keeps telling me he doesn't care. Doesn't care if the house is clean, or I can't go anywhere etc... And he has been through taking care of someone before. You'd think that would have made him want someone healthy. He is a very special man of God. I've seen on profiles...want a healthy woman ...and I think...do you think you're going to be healthy all your life? And hey, how about that baggage ya haven't dealt with...that's worse than physical sickness! And If ya do get sick do ya want your wife to see you differently? Very shallow and superficial. I am blessed that I am better than I was. Or I wouldn't have even tried again here on b.c. I was gone for about a yr or so. Been back about a yr and a half I think now. I pray for your healing, and Thomas and I will be praying for that. Blessing to you and your Beloved! Robin and Thomas    "Love is Patient..."

Robin, only a few of us here really understand what Fm is and how debilitating it is. They say that Fm is a direct result of trauma or abuse, and quiet often stemed from childhood onward. "The body remembers what the mind forgets" is some profeesional's philosophy. Just being in a painful marriage would do that kind of damage, but I suspect that it goes further into your past than that. My Beloved says to me that he loves me all the more, Fm included! I do have other issues, mainly hormone related and I am not what you call well 'all the time'. There is nothing 'hidden' in our relationship, and the more I try to throw something at him to see if he is 'put off' of me, the more closer he becomes! Can you comprehend that? I still have trouble with it all, but it is the work of the Father Himself and working through my Beloved to love me unconditionally here on earth as He does (well not exactly, but it comes pretty close). If anything my Beloved wants to see me whole and relieve me of any stresses that may alieviate me from the effects of Fm. I can honestly say that no one has trerated me with such respect and treasuredness before. He really loves me for who I am and sees me as my Heavenly Dad sees me! As far as I am concerned, and i know my Beloved will agree that men and women should not write such lists on their profiles if they are truely geniune Godly men and women. We believe as we have previously discussed that we should 'surrender' all to the Lord, and trust Him for our future mate. Sometimes that may mean to love beyond what we are used too, but God knows these things and who is best suited to whom! I am very blessed as are you that our Beloved's love us beyond our frailties. That is 'true love'! Thomas, YOU ARE THE MAN! Another hero in my book! Yeehaa!! God's richest blessings to you as you love and treasure Robin unto the Lord! Robin try and relax and allow the Lord to lead and work in Thomas life as he learns from the Father how to love you with an unconditional love! Blessing to you both! Louise & soon to be revealed Beloved! The body of Christ is like a patchwork quilt! All stitched together with God's love.

Ty Louise, Yes I am really starting to relax in God's work now. We had a great breakthrough 2 days ago, and I have been just soaking up God's blessings for 2 days now. I am so glad to finaly meet the man of God that the Lord had for me. You said it. Thomas is the man! And I'm so glad I started reading your blog! I have met a friend who has taught me so much in so short a time, and I feel understands me. I'm so glad to meet you, a woman of God! And there are some other women and men of God that I am so glad to know now. God is so good isn't he? He has been really puting sermons, and posts (yours mainly), and incidents (saved a bird, God healed my dog, etc..more), and dreams, for me to be guided through the hard stuff lately I had to go through. I had to stand...pray...fight...for a little while. Satan does not want this blessing happening. But we fought against the principalities of the air in Jesus' Name, and of course won! I'm so blessed. Like your title..Blessed my sox off! And I'm looking forward to hearing who your Beloved is. Nght and Blessings, Robin and Thomas "Love is Patient..."

My sis has it too. I have researched and tried almost every homeopathic remedies for for 23 yrs now. Here's what's helping me.. Vit D (perscription), Yerba mate tea, good vit for women, bcomplex vits. cal/mag ratio 1/1. And I am on something for sleep. No antidepressants now. No pain pills either. oh and flexeril for a muscle relaxer when I'm sleeping. I quit antidepresants about 6 months ago. I'm a different person. Also I do a bi-yearly herbal cleanse. (green black walnut tincture) It kills yeast in the gi tract, parasites, etcc. Then I put back in the probiotics and flora. I am doing alot better. I have lots more info too. Will check yours out too. And yes God uses us to help others who are sick. I have learned alot of compassion because of what I've been through with the illness. I am glad for what it taught me, and how God uses me with it. I do still pray to be healed, and feel like I'm on that path. My sweet man is so sweet. I don't think he'll ever make me feel bad about it. So glad we both found one's like that! Blessing to you again sis, Us "Love is Patient..."

lol yes I felt we are kindred spirits (I know not scriptural or is it?), as Anne (and it's spelled with an "E", she'd say) of Green Gables would say. My middle name is Anne too lol, and I always said that too...spelled with an "E", like anyone cared lol. Don't work too hard, and tc of urself. I am laid out in the recliner under a.c. after shopping in town. Must have seen a hundred harleys. We have Bikes, Blues, and BBQ here in a town near me. So I had to go get supplies and high tail it back up here in the hills and woods. There will be somewhere around 50,000 bikes and ppl here. Aaaaah! I don't want to drive in that. I miss my harley too. I rode all my life till my late thirties. Decided a place to live was more important at the time. love ya "Love is Patient..."
