Okay, I've had enough....

I'm gonna claim it right here for everyone to witness. I'm sick and tired of Satan seeking to destroy my family. The last month (really the last three years), have been a constant struggle and I've fretted, worried, been depressed...you name it. The last couple of weeks, I have been almost emotionless. I woke up this morning feeling different. Different in a good way....I'm gonna fight. I have my husband, daughter and a home to provide shelter, a relationship with the LORD and I don't need anything else! It's time to quit worrying and start praying! GOD has always provided everything we need and that will not change.

Yesterday morning, I noticed dried blood in Loren's ear and I didn't think that much about it. The night before she had told me her ear was itchy and I thought she had scratched her ear canal with her fingernail. The blood wasn't fresh and she wasn't in pain, so I sent her to school. All day long, I felt a strong feeling that something wasn't right. When I picked her up from school, I took her to the doctor. I'm glad I took her, she has a perforated ear drum. It was so bad, the ear drum couldn't even be visualized because of the large amount of blood in her canal. We see an ENT tomorrow to decide what has to be done. In all honesty, she will probably have two surgeries...one to repair the perf and one to place her tube back in her ear after everything is healed. All this before she can have her tonsils and addenoids taken out. So, worst case we are facing three surgeries. I am one that is frank with their child. She is intelligent and can handle the truth, I told her last night what the real deal was and she said "God will take care of me!" Amen, and that he will. He will provide the finanaces for all this medical care, he will protect her hearing and he will give us peace. There is no other source but him! She was running a low-grade temp last night, so prayers are welcome for no infection and no more bleeding. Both would be serious. She is on antibiotics as a precaution. Had no temp this morning.
 
enough and your trials become easier. We might think we have had all we can take but then something else happens. All from Satan? I doubt it. We are here to learn and grow and this is one way we do. We can pray for peace and guidance and our trials to diminish but we are subject to what the Lord feels we need. I hope your days do get easier.
 
I agree, God will decide which way he wants things to go. I simply mean I have had enough of me feeling like there is nothing I can do and that things are hopeless. That is not the case, I can pray, I can fast, I can grow as a Christian. Things will never get better if I do nothing and GOD is certainly not glorified by me just "surviving" each day. I firmly believe Satan knows the best way to get to me and that is through my family. When the health of my loved ones is threatened, I don't do too well. Just a fact! Personally, I believe all good things come through Christ and even though he may allow things to happen for our benefit (growth, faith), I believe Satan is at work when things happen that are beyond our control. We can bring many things upon ourselves, but the things that happen out of the blue, that our actions don't cause in any way, well...I give Satan the blame.
 
I will double up the prayers for your family!
 
I'm praying for you and your family,cause he lives I can face tomorrow,all fear is gone! In God I trust, HHH.
 
Hank, you wouldn't know this, but Because he lives is my favorite hymn. Maybe I should listen to it more, huh?
 
I love that song to,it has a lot of meaning to it, that was on my heart when I read your post!
 
Praying for all of you, Liz! I've had a few of those moments in my life when I had had enough and decided to take back what was mine - through the Lord, of course! Hang in there sister friend! It's all gonna be alright!

like God allowed for satan to temp Job my removing the protective hedge God had around him and his family! Our faith is tested and some things do happen ordinarily and some are to try our faith and make it stronger by enduring and overcomeing all things with prayer and our walk with Jesus! Read the new post about my daughter, Tami, and her husband Troy....they and David and Kim and also I are being tried more so with the out of control economy the way it is for quite a few years now and our health problames! Making it very difficult for anyone to save and get ahead, especially those with families and without better paying jobs! Prayer and Jesus and bless His Holy name! Praying for you and many others even more! Amen! :angel: Ma Betty

Thanks, Lisa. Sometimes I think our nature as women (worrying, trying to take care of and fix everyone), sets us up for disaster. It is so hard for me to give everything to GOD, I know I can't do anything without him, but for some reason I still feel responsible for things in my life that I can't control. Thanks for the vote of confidence ;)
 
Yes, MA! That is so true. You have a gift of wording things in such an understandable way, a gift that I do not have!
 
Thank you, Doug! We are still praying for your family!! I do hope you feel like posting more soon. Please let the forum family know if there's anything we can do for y'all!
 
Liz you said, "That is not the case, I can pray, I can fast, I can grow as a Christian", and you are spot on. We can find that The Lord hears our prayers as soon as they are prayed and that He will send help and He will strengthen us. Daniel ch10 will cover all three (and more). He is right and just and we live under his grace.

Prayers sent

Thank you very much for keeping us in your prayers! I pray God meets all your needs and that Loren's surgery will be a smooth one with a quick recovery.
