A fractured leg that was misdiagnoised! We are just now getting back to "normal"!<BR/>But...through it all ...6 months of no work...and next to little income...God has provided! I am still amazed that we got by on so little!! Losing our house...was a possiblity....there again...the Lord provided a way out. But what amazed me more than NOT losing the house was the sense of peace I felt during that six months! I am thankful to God for the time....it was time to not only test my faith...but grow it!! I see now...just how much I still need to grow and trust Him for all things.!<BR/>2009 does hold some dark shadows...but God is still here...and after all there is no security in anything but the Lord! He will not fail!<BR/>JanJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14151873680173500145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982662593354859176.post-74950296381462974892009-01-01T07:16:00.000-07:002009-01-01T07:16:00.000-07:00Thanks for the reminder that problems are not just...Thanks for the reminder that problems are not just problems--they bring us closer to God if we let them. I needed to hear that this morning, Betsy.

So did my friends, before this newest trial. But still, when new crises loom, the fear comes back, and the uncertainty, and the anger, and the pain. And yet, when we stay true to Him, He meets us there, and we come away knowing Him a little more, trusting Him more deeply, loving Him more truly."<BR/><BR/>I have also experienced this--both the inferno and coming out on the other side refined like gold. <BR/><BR/>Fear is okay. Moving ahead in spite of it is what God desires-- and it is only possible when we rely upon Him and Him alone.<BR/><BR/>This is a very powerful post and I know many will be encouraged by your words.Mary Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13594242579741198029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982662593354859176.post-24008152326911093662008-12-31T12:37:00.000-07:002008-12-31T12:37:00.000-07:00Thanks for the encouraging words.

I've been really struggling with something I've been called upon to do in a few weeks - actually thinking of backing out, because I know from experience it will bring problems with it. But now I'm beginning to think that I need to go through with it.Laurie M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15840896949617719814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982662593354859176.post-17565775220310613872008-12-31T12:25:00.000-07:002008-12-31T12:25:00.000-07:00Awesome post!
