Good news Heather, hurray.. Your babies have made it and you have made it. You should all be proud of yourselves. I never doubted that you would not prevail. Since I started reading your posts I've seen you improve daily. You've made leaps and bounds...congratulations. Keep it up girl you're an inspiration. Hug those boys gently for us and keep us updated.

Heather,

Glad to hear things are going better for you and your family. It must be a relief to know this surgery has turned out better than the other 2.

I can see that you have come a long way with this and come out stronger.

Keep up the good work,

Lisa

This was a real test of strength & faith & will & nerves, Heather. You passed with flying colors! Grrreat! I hope you get the respite you need. I have had trials & storms & know that there will always be more challenges to face. You are prepared for anything! Honestly! (((hugs))) jan

***IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY CHRISTIANITY OR "RELIGIOUS" TALK PLEASE DON'T READ. THIS IS A RESPONSE TO HEATHER***

Heather,
There now that I got the disclaimer out of the way :). I haven't had a chance to post to you personally yet, but just wanted to let you know that I have been praying for you and your family on a daily basis. What you said at the bottom of your post (about God not giving us more then we can handle) reminded me of a darling quote from Mother Theresa she said something to the effect of "I know God doesn't give us more then we can handle ever...I just wish He didn't have so much faith in me sometimes." I just had to chuckle when I read that. So true sometimes isn't it? God has so much more faith in us then we have in ourselves. I also wanted to mention to you a verse that I found in Isiah that has been a great comfort to me but of course as soon as I sat down and started typing this reply the chapter and verse flew outta my head. Dontya love when that happens :). I will hunt through my Bible and find the verse. But it is about how God made us and therefore cares for us. And it just hits me every time I read that verse that God does love us, He is the One that made us and does care about what we are going through no matter how trivial. Oooo, Isaiah 40:19...nah thats not right,lol,I will find the verse and edit this post and add it to the bottom. Keep your eyes up, Heather, this too shall pass. :)

Andrea,


That was an amazing post. THANK YOU!


I was just baptized last July and my life has changed. It was a full emerson and i really took it seriously and left my old life behind. That includes my life before anxiety. I will tell you though that the week before and the week after my baptism were AWFUL. It was the enemy trying to get at me through my weakness (anxiety).


I am getting stronger in my faith and LOVE my Church. It is hard though... our Pastor just left and we have a new one. I really can't say that i believe the new pastor is for me. I LOVED our old one, I had gone to him on so many occasions and in he end he used to joke about my having anxiety. He is an amazing man and i am just having a hard time. We also have an associate Pastor whom I also LOVE but he and his wife are going to Swazeland (sp) Africa for 5 yrs to minster there. I know that he is needed there more then here but I am really struggling with this. Our new Pastor is a nice man but overall people are not pleased and we are just Praying that things will get better with time. I am PRAYING that he will get a new associate Pastor that is more outgoing and someone that i am comfortable with, I honestly never see myself

Heather,
Glad I could help! That is wonderful that you were baptized. Just think Christ sai dthat whoever declares HIs name that He will declare and know them!! How awesome! I am sorry you are having these pastor struggles. My church went throughthis same thing about 5 years and the church family continued to pray and stay faithful and we were blessed beyond even our belief. We were sent a wonderful, God-honoring, humble just I can not say enough good things about Pastor Tom and he is affable and has such a good sense of humor. Keep praying about this and I am sure that GOd will bless you too. He has promised that when the faitful call out to HIm that He will answer!!
Lol, I have so many favorite verses I don't even know where to start. Isaiah is one of my favorite books to read, it so full of richness and hidden jewels!! God's promises are forever!! My e-mail address is andreadantzer@yahoo.com, if you feel comfortable why dont you write me with your e-mail address and I will give you some of my fave verses. I will be more than happy to talk with you anytime about anything. That is one thing I miss the most, being back inschool, I used to attend this small-group ladies Bible study and I felt like I grew leaps n bounds. I know you feel like you can't talk to the new Pastor, but don't forget the women in your church as well. I have found some unexpected but very profound friendships with some of the elderly ladies in our congregation.
Lol, ok, Ill stop there. I know your pretty busy taking care of those lil guys. How are they doing? I've been praying for them through out the day, and know God's hands are covering your family (remember He gathers His hurt and sick, just as a mother hen does with her chicks--I LOVE this analogy!!!!!)

YIPPIE HOORAY!!! I am so GLAD that Justin is doing so well.
I am SURE it was very emotional for all of you!! You have done so
well through this and your recovery from panic.
I wonder if the doc could give you another med WITH THE LEXAPRO???
Some do that I know as you wean off the one the other kicks in!!
Do you think he could do that?? I just worry about the panic coming
back without ANY MED!!!
You are so strong and I admire you!! Judy
