Overwhelmed

[PrairieGurl]

I sit here after reading quite a few posts. I have a lump in my throat. I see Alive again has been blessing others with her encouragment and care.

Today I spent the most time on CF at one time then I have since I became a member in June. As I read thru the posts and added the requests for prayer on my prayer list...my heart started to ache.

My Dad is going to a Province (6 hours away)
tomorrow to have an operation that he may or may not survive ( without this operation the anyerusm bursts and he dies anyway)
Tho I will
not worry, perse, there is a process one must go thru to deal with such a crisis.

I went to an AA meeting tonight and heard such heart breaking stories...

My heart just aches

Thanks for listening. You Friends are a God sent!

Dear WantToBe


The loss of a LOVED ONE is no loss if they are ready to meet the LORD. It is what life is all about.


It is a loss to us but we know in our heart it is part of GOD'S PLAN.


Someday your dad will have to leave this earth. The most important thing we can do is make sure he has the invitation to meet the LORD.


PRAY for him as I have done and then submit to the LORD:

" MAY THY WILL BE DONE "

Never doubt that the LORD ways are just.


Death is a time for sorrow for those left behind but a time of GLORY for those that are the ANOINTED. ( SAVED, BORN AGAIN ) The struggle is over!!! NEXT STOP is the KINGDOM OF ALMIGHTY GOD!!!





EVEN IN SORROW REMEMBER:







X Even though you can't see him, GOD is there!!! O
( click on the x and drag to the O ) ( then see who is with you ) steven

Like you said God tells us not to worry but he wants us to be concerned for our loved ones. The concern is healthy. It helps us to take care of them, to pray for them. I pray for your Dad's surgery and recovery. We have great health care here in Canada, I'm sure he'll have great dr.s and he's got the great physician on his case.

I have taken care of many people after aneurysm repairs and although it is a difficult and challenging surgery most eventually did well. Recently a gentleman in our church had an anuerysm repair of the aortic arch, had very serious complications and is very rarely successful, but he was a church Sunday. Rember God has a plan, no matter the outcome, God is big enough to handle it. I will be praying for you both and our favorite saying recently is "Don't tell God how big your mountain is, tell your mountain how big God is!!!"

Blessings and prayers!

Dear Friends,

I just said good bye to my Dad and Mom. Yes were shed. But I do have a peace that passeth ALL understanding.

I think yesturday, the overwhelming feeling came mostly from seeing and hearing about all the pain and hurting people I have seen and heard from. My goodness, thank goodness God is SO big. I understand why it rains so much, if the rain is Gods tears!

I just feel so frustrated sometimes when I can't "do" anything for someone. I know that prayer really is the best one can do...but sometimes I want to do more.

Thanks for your replies. If Dad does not come back to his earthly home, he will be in his Heavenly Home. NO more sickness, NO more tears and sorrow

Thanks Alive again!

Dad had an aortic arch anuerysm repair in 2004. (The surgen said it was the largest stent he had put in a person.)It really was a miricle that Dad survived! Which we all were and are very thankful for!
He than "wiped" out a few times (without telling anyone) and ended up going under the knife to place the stent back in place. Shortly after this Dad suffered a stroke.
He is 62 yrs old and looks and moves around like an 82yr old ill man.

I am so glad I believe God has a plan. If not for Dad on earth, then in Heaven with his Father!

MY GOD IS BIGGER THAN ANY MOUNTAIN IN MY WAY!
