You can't imagine how many times I wanted to write a post. But I haven't had the ideas, the time, and the energy simultaneously.
A quick update? It's been SS,DD (Same Story, Different Day), as they say. I've got darkness behind me, in front of me, and on both sides.
I am still praying for healing, but, many days, I'm praying that the Lord will sustain me for just one more minute. He is faithful! A few days ago I was struggling, feeling not very useful at all. The next time I checked my email, I found a thoughtful message from a woman who was helped by our church food pantry, which I maintain. God's timing was, as always, perfect.
I have a few book reviews to write, and another couple of posts that I hope to write. For now I just wanted to pop in and let you know I'm still here. Thank you for still being here, too.
I am sorry to hear it is still surrounding you - surely God will bring you through. You have my prayers.
ReplyDeleteBTW Dad's birthday card got to him just fine.
I have a friend who is just beginning a similar health challenge. Praying for you today that the Lord will be your Shalom and your healer.
ReplyDeleteGlad to have found your blog, infrequent or not! lol
I am still here, Melissa. I don't know what that long-term depression feels like; short-term is horrible enough. :-( One minute at a time--yes, my friend. That is enough. Praying for your endurance and God's bounty. Love you.
