It really spoke to me and brought a degree of emotional healing just when I needed it. Sadly, pain of whatever description is a universal condition. I'm just so glad that God is using my emphasis here to bless and encourage others:)Joy Lentonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03486637586238798088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2006877034360892497.post-44446396049686278132012-11-28T19:18:02.411-08:002012-11-28T19:18:02.411-08:00this is a very encouraging article. thank you.

Feeling swamped and overwhelmed is common to M.E and chronic illness sufferers as each day brings many challenges to overcome, or at least to strive to get through. It's lovely to meet you.

It is amazing how God always brings those people/things that will lift and help us just when we need them. Having personal verses to aid us in our walk are a precious reminder of His care.

When almost every day is a struggle to remain functioning and productive (even if in the smallest measure, by most standards) and independent, feeling out of my depth is a constant companion. I just keep chipping away at it, doing what I can without worrying too much about what I can't and trusting to God for the rest. Not always easy, especially with deadlines looming ... :)Adriannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09854845923975840148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2006877034360892497.post-91783047081472391562012-11-26T05:12:48.359-08:002012-11-26T05:12:48.359-08:00Thanks Joy,
