God will take us and change us into something more than we could ever have dreamend- if we sill refuse to give up and jsut keep running the race that is set before us. by Joyce Meyer<span class="ev_code_RED">Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race tht is set before us. - Hebrews 12;1 NKJV</span>

running with this foot is something I have been dreaming about for months. even walking fast is out of the question for me any more. but in my mind I can run in my dreames I can run. In my God I can run with endurance again, My dad was wounded on Palalu Island in WWII and his legs hurt him for over 60 years, walking was difficult, but in his epatath, we wrote how we know he is "walking with the Lord today". The ultiment healing is with God.

I need to make some cookies for my husband, he is running between the rains to get the hay up, for the winter, but the rain is growing the hay, and wattering the pastuers, God Bless the rain, we will cope with it, and we will get up enough hay for the winter, for God is in it.

Today I read this from a good friend; Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. " by Marianne Williamson

Wow that is going in my quote book, it is what this course is all about, and so, so, true, I can verify, the change in me has brought about a change in my husband, and my attitued toward others has brought about a change in all of them, or in my perception of them, I am so glad I took this course. I wish it was taught in schools.

Can I please ask for prayer? I have just ordered the Attacking Anxiety and am so very desperate. I have been blessed with 3 wonderful children after years of in-vitro, have a wonderful husband and family, wonderful church family and can't kick the anxiety and depresssion. I am 43 and am seeing a Psych and Counselor and taking meds that aren't helping. I would love to join your prayer group - 9:00 every night? Is that right? You all seem so very positive and things must have worked for you. I just need some hope. Thank you and God Bless all of you.

Welcome!! Terbear
I am sure God has lead you to us, as He did me, It is amazing how even though we seemingly have every thing we need in life, we are not happy. You sound so much like my neighbor, This program will help you to dig up what ever is causing the anxiety & depression, in your life, better than the psych, or Counselor can, you will do the work and you will be your own safe place, it is a little difficult but Lucinda has done a tirific job, in making this self help program, successful. My first problem was not following it as it is layed out. I didn't want to do the jurnaling, a very important tool, and I wanted to do one unit untill I thought I had it understood compleetely, so I was messing with it for weeks instead of doing one lesson in one week. I got bogged down, and discouraged, I am only telling you this because I want you to know, this works when you worke it just as it is desigend.

One lesson each week, as my coach said you owne it and you can go back to any part you want to but go totaly through it, first then go back if you feel you need to. And do the jurnalling. this is so helpfull.

God Bless your understanding, and be with you through the work, to help you dig the problems that are keeping you unhappy out of your subcoucious, and in to the healing light of the Lord. in Jesus name amen

Welcome terbear, please feel free to talk to us as often as you need too. We too, have be exactly where you are now. I have found this site is so helpful also.

Cfe, where do we get the coach, I don't think I have one. I have wrote to Carolyn several times and she has been wonderful. A answer to my prayers, but I always hate to bother her.

Jodi I am so sorry that you are going through this. When you say alone, do you live alone? And do you have any family or Christian family close by? If you ever need to talk please feel free to write to me. I usually have my email up (and I have where I am notified) But please don't feel like you are totally alone.

You are right all things has a purpose and though we do not know what they are it will help us to be stronger down the path.

hang in there girl!

Thank you so much for your kind words. When I got home today (from a hard day to get through) filled with anxiety - my Attacking Anxiety kit was here! Thank God! He knew I needed it so very much today! I made it thru tape 1 and don't feel quite as alone. I've been thru Pscyhiatrists, counseling and meds and no one told me the things I've already learned on Tape 1. My 11 year old saw me listening to it and doing the work book and wants to help me. God Bless all of you and please continuing praying as I to will for you!

I know the feeling, I have been a L.V.N. for 23 years and I never really looked at anxiety and panic attacks like this myself. I think you will find that the program is so good at touching the fine points. I just know that you will find it so benefiting. I really find the online foram and online chat really good. You will find so many loving people on both.
