A lot less 1 Posted January 22, 2008 Yes, Thanksgiving was hard for me cause grandkids and DD came home, but for Christmas it was just me and DH. I ruined the ham (not on purpose) cooked it too dry and I didn't cook a whole lot more, so thus, we didn't have a lot of goodies to eat. For NYE's we had brisket, peas and green Beans and black-eyed peas are not my favorite and I can take or leave green beans so I feasted on meat. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaunderwood 0 Posted January 22, 2008 Hello Wombat, I agree with you!! I didn't know the waiting would be so hard!! I do believe this is God's will for my life but patience is not one of my virtues!! Jaunderwood Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
travelgirl 3 Posted January 22, 2008 Whatever you do, don't pray for patience unless you're ready for God to give you trials that help you grow in that area of your life. Every time I do that, it seems like 4,000 fresh new obstacles are thrown in my path. For example, there are a grand total of 5 stoplights in my hometown, and I have to go through 4 of them to get to the highway for my morning commute. If I'm running a little bit late, and I ask for patience, because some days I struggle with road rage, there will be 30 cars driving 2 mph between me and where I'm going, and I'll manage to hit EVERY light when it's just turning red. And sometimes for good measure, there will be a pedestrian walking at a snail's pace that I have to slow down or even stop for....Well, you get the idea. Be careful what you pray for!

stepoffaith 0 Posted January 24, 2008 Hi everyone. I haven't visited for a couple of days. This week has been particularly hard. I have had some awful obstacles not related to the band thrown in my path. Satan has been attacking full force but by the grace of God I will walk strong. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I am leaning on Phillipians right now. I see the surgeon tomorrow to see what he says about the lap band and if he will prepare my packet for the insurance and what he will require of me. My blood pressure has been ridiculous this past two days and I have never had high blood pressure but I am forging on. Please pray for me tomorrow as I meet with the dr. Thank you for being my sisters in Christ. Thank you for this website and sharing with me. In love, Cindy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have already spoke the words over yourself and you will make it. BP is probably from the other stress that's going on. satan never brings anything new, his stuff is the same old crap, so I say to him and his imps, "Cindy IS covered under the bless of Jesus that died on the cross and rose again for HER, took the keys of hell and death. Take your hands off of her cause she is a child of the mighty and most high God. God's word says, The Lord IS Cindy's shephard and Cindy shall NOT want....
