Just know that way over here in the States, I am one with you in prayer and reflection too. I only wish you could feel the warmth of my outreaching hand and if I were there, the biggest huggie ever! You are doing the right thing and going in the right direction. Remember the little saying about leaving your problems with God and He responds that he won't be needing your help with them? Well, this is the time. Just rest, think happy thoughts, pray and let Him guide you. Some things we just can't do ourselves. I know you will trust in Him. Will be anxiously awaiting for you to come back but all in good time. God bless you sweet Jenny.

Eight years ago I was an active participant in life. Working as a hospital chaplain, with two teenage sons and a hubby, and lots of volunteer work. Life as I enjoyed it came to a screeching halt because of several medical issues. Spent 8 years in a wheelchair, being told I would never walk again. God thought otherwise, and I am on my feet. Still in the chair for long periods on the feet. I thought I was never going to recover from the sadness. My sons left the nest, my body was against me, and I felt useless and helpless. I always knew God was good, but didn't realize how good He is even in the bad times. My prayer for you, as you journey through this period in your life, is that you will ever more rely on the One who gives peace, Grace and so much love. I have a photo of myself leaning back in God's mighty hand under his everlasting wings. That you also rest in His palm, that you see so much of His glory surround you that you will be strengthened and encouraged moment by moment. I pray that you will feel His love in all that you do. Take the time to rest in Him, let Him heal your heart, strengthen your soul and saturate you with His healing. Love to you today and everyday. --shannonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-40030183659825192962014-05-26T01:58:41.381+10:002014-05-26T01:58:41.381+10:00Jenny - Here are a few scriptures for you.

For someone with depression I'm amazed at your energy level and how much you accomplish. I too have major depression and low energy. God dealt me a card on Monday that I was completely unprepared for. My little terrier mix dog, Chi Chi, has been losing weight and threw up blood on Monday. It all happened so fast and he was miserable so my husband and I made the decision to put him down. He was an older dog and had had a wonderful life with us. I am sorry that you have had a heavy heart and pray that God will wrap His arms around you and give you comfort, strength, and a calmness that you certainly need and deserve. Don't worry about your blog....your readers and followers will be here when you return. Just look inward and be good to yourself. You are a talented, energetic, Christian woman. I wish you great success in your self discovery and finding your path. Love and hugs to you my friend !!
