Praise God--that He has helped your mood. Feeling down and anxious all the time is a dummer. I don't think we were meant to live like this do you?
If there is going to be a new earth in which to live, I think PEACE and SECURITY are going to be the most revered attributes of that country. We'll have a Lord and a God who will not lead us into captivity as our leaders do now and take away the labor of our hands and put it in their pockets.
We never again FEAR for anything or FEAR anyone as we do now. The lives of those we love will dwell in safety.
How sweet the thought!

Very very true, Sis.
I think, one of the main aspects I can't wait for is also the love everyone will have for eachother. No more of this anger, resentfulness, hate, and revenge..
I'd like to not be scared of the reaction I'll get from people in certain situations.

Went to the doctors the other day to some more bad news. Apart from the upside that it wasn't the particular thing my doctor was suspecting, we found out that they found another nodule. This one is in her right lung, so now that's one in each. It's popped up in the last couple months, too. My doctor thinks it's some kind of infection, but he's so focussed on her heart right now..he's kinda pushing aside the lungs. It's bumming her out, cause she believes her heart's fine. Wouldn't be so bad if it was easier for us to rush around (like if we had a car) and do all these tests, but right now funds are way too limited to even do the ones he's sending her for. So, the fact it's not even for the lungs is annoying.
Don't get me wrong, we trust my doctor..if it weren't for him I wouldn't be here! It's just frustrating sometimes when people get a tunnel vision and have to do something else first.
Please pray that whatever it is she has is found out, that we have the strength to keep this up, and that my dad will be well enough to help us financially when I go to see him this week. He hasn't been well enough to give us the money we need right now, and his mind's going.
All being God's will, of course. If that's not the route we're to take for money..then I trust Him, but it's the last thing I can think of.
Things are certainly hitting their lowest right now for us, guys.
I appreciate your support, as always.
Blessings and Love,
Sarah

Sarah honey, never ever say "things are at their lowest". I'm serious. Any time I've ever said that, I found out that the bottom was actually a lot deeper than I could've ever imagined.
Your mom is getting tested and that's the first step. Think about all the people that don't have any kind of insurance to help them, but they know there is something terribly wrong with them.
I believe God does guide the hands of doctors so I will pray for your doctor and for your mom, and for you that you never have to find out how deep that bottom goes.
It's not fun.
You're going to be okay. God leads us THROUGH, not FROM.
You are a triumphant soul and so is your mom, I can tell!

I don't know how many times I think that when my mom says it can't get any worse. I guess maybe I should rephrase that as "Things are at the lowest they have every been"?
Right now the possibility of homelessness is looming, so I do know it can get a lot worse.

Thanks Sis. I know we are very lucky to have the health care we have up here, which I guess makes it a bit more frustrating when you can't afford to go to the tests...Although, thankfully, our friend should be able to drive us in a few weeks. ( I hope we have money by then, anyway)
I mentioned that hippo platimus thingy to her (Rofl. I can't remember what it's called right now, but I remember that it made me think of that). She looked it up and said some of the symptoms don't really match her, but she'll keep it in mind too.
I so hope my dad's there mentally enough when I visit him tomorrow, God's graced me with the blessing of my health getting better right now..cold's finally leaving, but I'm trying hard not to get scared about it. I'm either going to leave with enough money that we can relax for awhile, or I'm going to leave knowing he's not an option anymore. If that's the case...God knows what we'll do.

I just noticed this thread as I have not been on the forum since Fri. I feel so sad for you, my heart goes out to you. I will pray for you, your mom and your dad every morning and every night. Please keep us updated as you are able.
