Bailey has done amazing with this whole process, and I am filled with so much pride.
On the way to the hospital this morning, we heard this amazing song by Laura Story called Blessings....
I am guilty of praising God during the good times, and when things are going along smoothly....But when things go wrong, and I struggle, I get angry. I have asked God, why He just won't take the pain away. Why does my daughter have to endure the complications of Neurofibromatosis? Is He even listening to me, when I am on my knees, crying out to Him?
But what I am learning, especially while going through this, is that God blesses you, even through your tears. I have seen so much good come from this scary time. The love and support that our friends and family have shown is has been amazing!
Remember, the rains of life, will eventually bring flowers.
yes even i have trouble remembering to praise him in the storm...The otherday there was nothing on Tv except Touched by an Angel. It was an episode about praising God during bad times,..The town was in drought crops were dying evrything was so dry and everyone prayed for rain...they put monica(the angel) on trial) for claiming to be an agel..they asked her why god had forsaken them...she answeresd with...GOD HAS HEARD YOU PRAYERS..AND HE HAS AN ANSWER..GOD WILL ALWAYS ANSWER YOUR PRAYERS..,THIS TIME THE ANSWER IS "NO". It is not our place to tell god what HIS plan should be..I willl Pray his answer to be "Yes" when it comes to healing your recious daughter Bailey.
ReplyDeletealso that God GIVES YOU THE STRENGTH TO DEAL WITH ALL YOUR BLESSINGS AND THEIR GIFTS.
PRAISE THE LORD INTHIS STORM THAT HE HAS ALLOWED HER TO REMAIN ON THIS EARTH EVEN TODAY THROUGH THIS STORM. GOD BLESS YOU MY DEAR FRIEND
Makes me think of a quote that I read in high school, "Sorrows like rain make roses and mud."
ReplyDeleteHere is one of my favorite verses that has gotten me through many hardships. God is forever faithful.
Isaiah 43:2 (New International Version, ©2011)
2 When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
i pray u get well. god bless u...

I LOVE THAT SONG! I just looked at the time, and I realized that I have spent the last 2 and a half hours on your blog-reading about your sweet family.
ReplyDeleteYou give me hope.
Blessings will come your way, even when it seems like the rain is never going to end.
LOVE YOU KIDDO!
