    Hi! New here & not sure where to start.

    The effects of Lyme are very similar to the after effects from meningitis, so I can imagine what he's been enduring. And at such a young age, it must be especially tough. I struggle with not being able to enjoy the active lifestyle that was such a big part of my life. But I had many years of...

    Hi! New here & not sure where to start.

    I know God is working for the good out of this situation. The hard part for me is I was soooo active before. Working every day, coming home and doing all the evening routine, weekends spent having fun with the granddaughters and/or out hiking, camping, swimming, spending time on and in the...

    I just wanted to say thank you all for your warm welcome and prayers. I'm not feeling so good today. Nothing unusual. It's just because of the really cold tems I think. Wishing everyone a peaceful night & blessed day tomorrow. Maybe I can share a little with some of you then.

    Thank You! There's a purpose in this, I know. I just haven't found it yet & it really gets discouraging sometimes.

    Oh, no. I didn't mean the old me as in before I was saved. No worries there. I'll not go back to that life.There is nothing in that old life I would ever want. Oh, the love and joy I have in Christ has surpassed any love and joy I have ever known. He most definately is the utmost 1st love in my...

    I agree with you totally. But do you have suggestions that have worked for you or someone you know? As far as physically getting away, that's impossible. Now that I can't work & my husband's work in construction is at a halt due to weather we are struggling really bad financially. we're behind...

    Hi! New here & not sure where to start.

    Keeping my focus on God is the easiest part. Before I got sick I found how great it was to keep Him with me all the time. After my morning time alone with Him, I'd spend the rest of the day talking to Him all day. I'd even say, " Ok Jesus, let's go get this laundry done." And I'd picture Him and...

    Hi! New here & not sure where to start.

    Thank you. I began by asking for healing, and also had prayers and anointing with my church family. I still often pray for healing if it be His will. Of course I don't know God's thoughts, but I'm thinking He has some purpose in this. My faith does stay strong, I would be nowhere without Christ...

    Hi! New here & not sure where to start.

    Up until April my life was full of work, homelife, and lots of outside activities. Wow, that changed in a matter of hours. In the middle of the night I woke up with a blinding headache, and after 2 days of misdiagnosis, on the 3rd trip to the ER they confirmed I had bacterial meningitis. I had...
