Stress Center Peer Support

Barb G; "My husband said I need to leave it go"

He is your partner, God put you together to support each other, and make each other hole. I have found that my husband isn't as stubern as I am and he can hear the wisdom of God easier than I can. It's a man thing I think.

I heard on sunday how Man was made from the clay of the earth, but woman was made from Man, and for a man to be whole he must have a woman and care for her and charish her, and she must have a man to love and charish her. I have alwas believed that but now I have a little more grounding for my belief.

It's very hard for people to be around her because she won't sit still and nobody can do anything right

Hurting People hurt people! Lucinda would ask "Is this someting you have any control over?" God askes the same thing. Are you trying to be holly gost jr. In these instences we must step back and let God be God. we can pray, we can send gifts, we can call with good news, or rite, but we can't make decissions in arias wear we have no control, it will only bresk your heart and make you ill. I tried doing that for 6 years with my daughter. Only when I gave up, and burried her in my heart, was God able to send her new people who modled before her, and helped her to see what she was in to, was bad for her. He brought her back to her roots, her church, and I have to say I wasn't happy with some of her decissions, during this time, but I kept believeing God was directing her steps, and she was learning, and advancing, I was reminded that when the prodicle son left, his dad or mother did not follow him, and drag him back, they kept the home fires burning, and waited for God to bring him home to them. All along, Joyce was saying "I am not wear I want to be, but thank God I am not wear I used to be, I am on my way, and I'm OK" Joyce Meyer, got me through loosing my daughter, for what seemed like forever, I fully expected her husband to kill her, and somehow blame me for it. I sometimes think I should send him a Thank you card, I am closer to God now because of the Hell my daughter went through in his house, and I am now greatfull for that shove in to the armes of God.

Pray for Pat and pray for her Dr's and her husband, and her sister, and for any one that comes in contact with her that God has sent to bring her hom. I learned that I can't recognize a good day, or a good cercomstance. When God is working it doesen't always make sence to us, but it all workes together for our good, with faith and trust, and pixy dust!(FAITH) You are called to pray, and obey, laugh, at your enemyes, and enjoy your life. "we do not war against flesh and bone, but against the principalities of this earth. The Battle is the Lords" know that Pat is safe, she is a child of God, and if you never see her alive again, you will see her in heaven.

Cry, and cry, let it all out, then dry your eyes, wash your face, pray for Pat's hiest good. Her husband's full attention, and decernment, her Dr's and care givers, wisdom, and understanding to find what ever it is that is causing this confusion for Pat, for your direction on what you can do! Then "haveing done all! Stand" in your conviction, that God is good, and God is in controle, and everything is being done for Pat under His management. Put a smile on your face, "beeing less affected so you can be more effective". is a powerfull tool, don't let the devil, take your "JOY" for the Joy of the Lord is your strength. "Guard your heart", and keep walking with the Lord, "this is the day that the lord has made" rise up and be glad in it.

I am praying for Pat. I hope things are improving. God bless!

Hello. I am very happy to see this thread. I would love to join together with you guys in prayer. I am having a very rough time right now with anxiety & panic. As you all know it can get to be a very lonely path. I have been praying but sometimes when your head is so muttled it can be very difficult with the pain to see answers or even have the hope to expect them. I am seeing some doctors now because of my blood pressure spiking suddenly. I do seem to have problems with this more when I'm having a prolonged period of anxiety. Could be that alone..I don't know. It did rise a lot during my stress test though so the doc wants me on bp meds. When it happens so sudden it makes me feel like I'm going to pass out & OF COURSE it immediately scares me & I panic on top of it..or maybe it's the panic starting it to begin with. Who knows. But the worry of it all has me frazzled. I am on constant guard of when it will happen & never go anywhere for fear it will while out (the bp & panic) Which includes church unfortunately. Please add me to your prayer list & I will pray for you. I am really trying to get it in my brain that God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, and love, and a sound mind.. But my body is tricking the life out of me! I feel very far away from Him now. I know I need to continue to draw close. My mom tells me "HE hasn't gone anywhere". Anyway..don't want to ramble on & on. Thank you to anyone who hears & prays! I am going to say a prayer for you all now as I close this message. God Bless.

Hello everyone in this prayer group!

I haven't posted here for a while. I guess since the beginning of May. I went throught the program up to Week 13 and quit. I got so, so depressed and angry. I'm struggling to start the program again.

Should I restart from the beginning or finish the program and then go to the different weeks that I should really redo?

Well, I'm asking for prayer anyways just for me and my family. I'm seeing the effects first hand at how they are responding and acting out since I've been like this their whole lives. I have six little "me's" living in my house and it makes me more depressed to see what I've done to them!

Thank you.
Heather

Beyoun,i do not mean to bust yuor bubble hereok but we did have a group here for awhitle and a man popa john statred it and we did it every friday nite in the help chat at 8 pm est it went on for a whilte but now it has stop we have not had group prayer in awhile ok but u still have a great ideal i mean anyone wants to start up anothero ne be ok by me llet me knowok and God Bless you hun and good luck too susie.

Cheri, your advice is wonderful as always. Even today the Lord reminded me of something when I was first saved and somehow thought I could save everyone. It was this little cartoon vision that I saw the Lord flying in a helicopeter and watching Barb pacing to and fro on the earth as he grabs a megahone and hollers out, "You're not the Saviour of the world, I AM." Yes indeed he is the great I am and he was reminding me of that again today and now you did too Cheri. It's very draining trying to carry someone all along. Today she left a messageof me coming out there. There's no way I can until we get moved. We may have to move in with someone else yet. We won't know till the last minute.
Sic, I'm sorry your bp has gone up and you're having problems. You can come on this forum anytime and know we're praying for you and others. That's what this is all about. Susie, as far as I know the prayer night poppa john started is still going. I was on 2 wks. ago. It's 8pm eastern. 7pm central. Heather, I'd missed hearing from you. My suggestion is to do work l3 again. Pray first and ask the Holy Spirit to show you what upset you so much that you quit. P.U.S.H. Pray until something happens! It will. don't stay stuck. Do the best you can and move on. Carolyn said sometimes when you go thru it the 2nd time you get more out of it. I'm planning on doing it again after this move. Prayers to all of you and thanks for praying for Pat. I will also for her husband (I'm seeing more now what he's gone thru in the past and is again after 30 yrs.) so his behavior makes more sense. Praying also for other helpers that go there. Thanks for reminding me Cheri the importance for all these people esp. her sister who burned out in a couple days. Good nite all.

sick&tired;" when your head is so muttled it can be very difficult with the pain to see answers or even have the hope to expect them."

wow that was my name for a long time, but Lucinda and otheres have convinced me, I don't come to sick&tired any more, that is not my name, my name is Cheri, alive, and willing to make it a good day! That is what we have to do. Feelings are temperal, an attitude of grattitude is our orders of the day, and we need to wake up and start the day with the Joy of the Lord. I am so glad you found this thread too!! for It is written, "if you are sick; call the elders" because you are so rite! I can think of the answer, and I can pray for decernment, I can receive wisdom, when I am not sick and in pain, but the pain somehow eliminates, my reason, and I can't think of a thing to help myself, this is no surprise to God, He has told us to call for help! I love this Forum because it makes calling for help so much easier. Yes we will put you on our prayer list. and Thank you for praying for us, for "if you need a harvest, plant seed in the life of another". We all need to pray for one anoter. God Bless you Child of God (sick&tired) and keep looking up 8^)

Heather; Should I restart from the beginning or finish the program and then go to the different weeks that I should really redo?

It is suggested you go through it all! then go back and pick up what you need to focus on, or just start over. I had the same problem, I think God for my Coach, she helped me to perservier and get through it all the way, and I am so glad I did, I still have growing pains, but less and less. It helpes to be in a prayer group like this one.

I recognize the looking back at the mess I may have been a big part of in my children. the Devil loves it wen we look back at our mistakes, God tells us "every day is a new start, Grace is new every morning! God has forgiven, and forgotten, your mistakes, Jesus died on the cross to give you the gift of Riteiousness, so you can stand before the throne with boldness, to ask what you wnat. Forgiving ourselves doesn't come as easy for us, as it does for God. "for our ways are not His ways" but they should be, the strongholdes that satan has built in our lives, has molded us to fit the world, but we are not of the world, and God has made a way through Jesus Christ, to be reborn, a new creature, remolded back to the child God knitted together in your mothers wormb, so precious to God he pattended your finger prints, changed to fit in heaven. You are rite your children will be just like you, so far it hasn't gone to well being depressed before them. But you with the help of God can turn that around. and you can modle a life of JOY, hope, and promis. They are still young, I can already tell in this year what a diffrence my changeing has made for my children, and my baby is 33 tomarrow. Taking the responsibility of; taking care of yourself, guarding your heart, turning your attitude to grattitude, will help all your relationships, with your husband, your family, and most of all your children, wen you start to moddle the new you, You can draw a Blod line in this generational curse on your family. This course will be a great help, this prayer group will be a great help, only you and God, can make this cange for you, and everyone you toutch. I know it will work for you, because it has worked for me, and "what He has done for others He will do for you." Do you have the book "The Battle field of the mind, by Joyce Meyer, that is a good bood to help you renew your mind, and turn your frown up side down. Practice smiling, edifying, and enjoying your life, becaus those 6 little onew will live the way they see you live, Show them God.

susie; anyone wants to start up anothero ne be ok by me llet me knowok"
