Array ( [sid] => 94814 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Why so much? [time] => 2005-05-17 22:26:41 [hometext] => this is a poem again about my illnesses, but with a little brighter ending to it....... [bodytext] => I try to think I am a strong person.
Who believes in God above..
However, I seem to be stricken with so much.
Just to name a few….asthma, hearing loss, needing to wear hearing aids in both ears
Fibromyalga, vision problems, these are just to name a few.
Not to forget the migraines and headaches I get so many times. They haunt me day in and day out.
My pain, is often more then I can deal with,
God, I ask, WHY ME?
Then a soft answer comes back to me,
“I will not allow you to receive more then you can handle, my child”
and then I know my God
He has answered me, and will help carry me on farther, just as He has been all my life.

I have the fibromyalga and asthma, amongst another list.
Still I feel so blessed as writing is my thing and on the days I can hardly walk I spend right here doing what I do.
My health is comming back some but still I have pains but if I didn't have some pain I'd think I was dead.
A great masyterpeice that builds ones soul up to a higher notch.
Sing it loud 'cause every time we praise the Lord the more evil gets ******!
It's then when we are walking thru the storm with a smile on our faces we have defeated the enemy that seeks to destroy.
Luv it and please keep writing 'cause few are called but u have been chosen by the luving peace of God.
huggs,
emy
