BE AWARE

March is MS awareness month.  #Go Orange

As I celebrate March, I noticed my stability is decreasing.  It is becoming more of an effort to walk. I also noticed my speech becoming more slurred.

In feeling all this; God spoke to me & said, "what, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31

Do You Hear What I Hear

Mu ch to my annoyance, I like my music up loud, my husband told me that I was noisy. Lately, my tolerance level is low for loud sounds. It is too much. Today as I was reading Very Well Health , I noticed information about hearing and MS. The article is one of those things that make you go MMM. Being of age can have something to do with aggravation to loud sounds. Consequently, Very Well Health states that sensitivity to loud sounds can become m ore prominent in MS patients. I got one question.   Is there any part of the body that MS doesn’t try to invade?   I’m a very private person and for me to share space with MS, well, it’s just too much. “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God”.   Romans 10:17

Let me lean!

I was watching the news in reference to the Government shutdown. This lady was on there crying because with no pay, her and her son will be homeless. Point being, it is a lesson in it for us all. In one way or the other we will be if not already effected. Lesson being, God is my Provider; it's all just stuff. God wants all of us to lean & depend upon Him. "For kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth." 1st Timothy 2:2-4

Don't Go There

I read this interesting article on  Everyday Health that made a good point about germs & assistive devices.   I don’t leave home without my cane and probably have dropped it a thousand times.   I found the article interesting because I never gave it much thought.   It’s ironic that I didn’t because with MS & the immune system being suppressed, I like everything clean.   I laugh at myself because I say that I must have the cleanest hands in town with perpetually washing my hands. I don’t touch public door knobs. That’s to name a couple of things; with most things one might say I’m over the top. Here is the kicker, I worked in a clinic. Work was a constant battle with cleanliness.  God says, “I will save those who love me and will protect those who acknowledge me as Lord. When they call to me, I will answer them; when they are in trouble, I will be with them. I will rescue them and honor them. I will reward them with long life; I will save them...

Help

I read Isaiah 41:13 today and I was blessed by what God said to me & I would like to share it with you. “For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.” With the heat, humidity outside today and the MS cold; these words take authority over the way I feel because I know that I have help and I do not have to fight this battle.   All I have to do is stand still because He says, “Be still, and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10 BE BLESSED!

Ride With Me

Sometimes I get overwhelmed with the MS symptoms. At times, I am very forgetful.   I must write it down or otherwise I might forget. After a month, I remembered to return a call to a friend. Those types of things are becoming bothersome to me because I don’t want to appear stand offish. To be in my world, one must work with my strengths oppose to my weaknesses. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” Philippians 4:13. G et on the MS roller coaster and ride.That’s what it is like to have a love one or friend with MS. ONE BIG RIDE!   I must say, buckle up, make sure your seat belt is on because some days the ride might be bumpy. You must be strong to take this ride.   If there are any signs of weakness, well, the MS ride may not be for you. Remember, you can always get off at the next stop. However those of us that have been assigned this journey must take the ride and it's better or should I say easier if we are not alone. In evaluation of it a...

Won't He Do It!

After a few years of the MS diagnoses, I’m unable to write.   If I do write, it is illegible. MS has affected my hands. To have the ability to blog is truly a blessing. Lord, I can’t live without You. I can’t talk without You.   I can’t walk without You. I can’t move without You, Lord. “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.”   Psalm 34:8  The Lord Jesus Christ showed up today at my house, well, He never really left.   Point being is, God confirmed two things for me: Isaiah 55:11 “so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” The second thing that God clearly stated is, “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent.” Acts 18:9  Shout out to “Multiple Sclerosis.net” for the publishing of my blog listed below entitled “Truth Is”   I was diagnosed with MS in 2015. I don’t always f...

What Is This?

I never seen anything like this before in my life. MS is the lonest, the most expensive, the most complicated and I can go on forever. I never experienced anything like this before.  Right now, I feel like I'm the only person in the world. I feel like nobody cares and if they do, well, they don't understand.  With MS, to not  understand or to not care is the same thing. Because with both, one can not relate to the MS patient.  Speaking personally, that is what anyone with a chronic disease need, someone to understand and have the ability to relate to the disease and all the obstacles that come with it. I think I'm overwhelmed.  Sometimes I think too much. However I saw a quote that said "Sun is alone too, but still shines." That made me smile and remember that God said, “In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 Even though some don't understand or whatever t...

Facts

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.   Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.   It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. ”  1st  Corinthians 13:4-7 “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. ”   Romans 8:18
