With all my heart I have to tell you, please keep up your faith in God. I have struggled my whole life thinking something was wrong with me and not knowing what it was. Through lots of research I have realized that it is possible I may have a mild case of ADD/Aspergers myself. The truth is, you don't grow out of it, it is how you are made. You can learn to live with it and work with it and you can find yourself doing quite well. You just have to have patience with yourself. How the realization happened that I may have it myself is because of a relationship my daughter has with an Aspi guy and the relationship has been very difficult. When she can not understand him at all, I understand him completely. We have tried to be good examples to him and have been praying for him. It took me many years to finally realize that the only thing that truly keeps me together is knowing and believing that Jesus is my savior and will never fail me. Yes, people will, but He never does and His love and mercy are endless. I also had to realize, it's not the people around me but my actual relationship with Him. There are times when my heart is so filled with love for Him and it spills out to others that are in need. I especially love those that struggle with the issues I have and my daughter has. I can't even imagine the Lord not being the center of my life ever again. I would be so lost and I don't want to go there ever again. Through prayer, He has given me compassion and empathy that I never had for people. Faith and prayer can bring about miracles, even with people that are made a little different, actually, Especially with people that are different and people that have been broken. In the bible He tells us "I will make the weak strong and the strong weak". That is the truth. Jesus can fill the emptiness, that black hole that never seems to go away, if only we let Him. If you truly trust Him and give Him your heart. I am praying for my daughter now and this guy who we are pretty sure has aspergers. I witnessed a miracle and he came to church with our family one Sunday out of the blue and I am praying we will see him there again. Prayer is the answer. I know it is because of what my daughter and I witnessed. We have both been praying for him and we know that God heard our prayers. Prayers aren't always answered over night, but if you have faith, you can see amazing things happen in your life.
God Bless You, Dianne
Thanks for the encouragement. I have been doing a lot better from the past few weeks. I just need to look more at what i do have instead of what i don't have. Yes, he has been good to me, even when i havent been the same. That is an amazing God there.
