Monday, October 13, 2008 | A General Update story

HEY EVERYONE,

 

i've been in severe pain lately and haven't been on.  i came to DS for encouragement and haven't found it here.  It seems like I've been drained here.

 

Every where in my life I go, it's seems like no one or no group of people can encourage me or bring me hope and cheer for any length of time.

 

I had to leave DS for a while and seek God as to what to do.

 

I tried to encourage others here and it just drained me.

 

I don't mind helping others, but I need to be encouraged in a huge way.  I am so sick physically right now and on bedrest and everything else, that the discouragement creeps up on me and causes me to not want to talk.

 

 I am also dealing with dr's who have no idea what they are doing to manage my pain and are decreasing my pain medication instead of increasing it.

 

Please, don't leave me my friends, but understand where I am coming from.

 

I love you all,

 

Brenda

    I feel the same way as you! Everyone tells me something different and its frustrating! I guess we can only go with those who really "seem" to care! Good luck and I hope you get relief VERY soon!!! We will all be here when you need us!

    The Way of Love
    13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, [1] but have not love, I gain nothing.

    4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; [2] 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

    8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

    13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

    I understand Brenda... It's really hard sometimes because you feel like you give and give to others and then get nothing back in return..or just a little bit of what you give comes back.. There are some very caring people who always think of you though just hold on to that.. Sorry you are feeling so terrible ..Hugs for you

    Hang in there! Can you find something to do while in bed? Is there music you enjoy listening to or a good book or puzzles or some kind of arts and craft projects? I know it must be hard spending so much time in bed. God bless:0)
