" Self-Pity is a slimy, bottomless pit. Once you fall in, you tend to go deeper and deeper into the mire. As you slide down those slippery walls, you are well on your way to depression, and the darkness is profound....." Jesus Calling
I'll admit-- that last week this was exactly where I was ... in the bottomless pit. I begged God to take me home to heaven. BUT ... with your many prayers - my family - my doctors- and GOD -- I am out of the pit and praising HIM today. I can see blessing after blessing that has happened; even the chemo treatment being postponed.
Thank you for your prayers and encouragement. GOD is GOOD
Psalm 40: 1-3
"I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me. And heard my cry.
He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay. And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps.
He has put a new song in my mouth---
Praise our God, Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the Lord."

Praying for you my precious friend!!!

ReplyDeleteBut now thus says the LORD, he who created you, Sallee, he who formed you, Sallee:
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. Isaiah 43:1-3a

...YOU will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on YOU, because he trusts in YOU. Trust in the Lord forever, for in the Lord, is everlasting strength...Isaiah 26:3,4
ReplyDeleteLove you Sallee. I cannot even pretend to know what you are going through, but every time I stop by to see how you are doing, my heart breaks for you over and over again. Hang in there and stay strong. I know that sounds so cliche' ~ but I know that you can... YOU have the mind of Christ and are MORE than a conqueror in Christ Jesus! Keep your eyes set on Him and the promises of His word... keep praising Him in this storm and take rest under the shadow of the Almighty. He loves you SO much, and hates to see this pain you are in, too. Glad to hear you are in a bit better place right now, and praying that with each day, you keep the faith and remember that the JOY of the Lord is your strength!
