**SPIRITUAL** A DAY AT A TIME

05/06 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY So many of us suffer from despair. Yet we don't realize that despair is purely the absence of faith. As long as we're willing to turn to God for help in our difficulties, we cannot despair. When we're troubled and can't see a way out, it's only because we imagine that all solutions depend on US. The Program teaches us to LET GO of overwhelming problems and LET GOT handle them for us. WHEN I CONSCIOUSLY SURRENDER MY WILL TO GOD'S WILL, DO I SEE FAITH AT WORK IN MY LIFE? TODAY I PRAY May I be free of despair and depression, those two "down D's" that are the result of feelings of helplessness. May I know that I am never without the help of God, that I am never helpless when He is with me. If I have faith, I need never be "helpless and hopeless." TODAY I WILL REMEMBER Despair is the absence of faith. ..Boy, that's a GOOD ONE... my momma got very sick Sunday.. she went to the dr yesterday. She had a catscan done.. something turned up, but I'm not sure what or where. I talked to her last night and she was in bed, so I didn't want to disturb her too much. I'll talk to her today and try to get more info. She has another dr appt today (or trying to get her in) and they may schedule her for a colonoscopy. Please keep her in thoughts and prayers!!

I will say a prayer for your Momma sweetie. Love you. Julie

Prayers for mama on the way .....

You are always in my prayers and now your Momma is on my list...please keep me informed about what is going on. I loved your post today...how true it is. Take Care Sweetie everything is going to be okay with Mom Hugs. Barb

I just talked to her.. and she said that the catscan showed some thickening in the upper colon. She said she does still have some pain in that area.. fatty part of left side of waist (kinda up high). Her family doctor is suppose to be getting her into a specialist.. and she's waiting on a callback. However, they are not the most thorough office.. so she said she may call them her soon to see what's going on. If she is like me.. it's time to get in there and get it done. No ***** footing around... half the fear is the unknown. Thanks Barb.. and as I hear more I'll let you all know
