Prayer for a family member
Deborah-Leigh:
That is good news Marlene.
I too have been given to look at my trials and tribulations not as wrath that is going to destroy me, but as blessings of God who has appointed each trial to overcome and every tribulation to walk through with His Spirit. We are not appointed to wrath, which is so comforting! So when I look at any difficulty that a true believer is experiencing, I see it as....wow....that is a big blessing that God has designed you to overcome!
I am ever aware, that the overcoming is not without tears, pain and deep changes God is working is us. :)
It is His work in Teresa, you and all of us sharing our burdens, joys and sufferings as He unites us in His Spirit.

Arc,
Your words are so applicable to my own current trial.
Marlene,
I can only hope and pray that God gives me the faith and courage that he has graced both you and Teresa with. I am glad to hear that she is doing much better. I pray that God continues healing Teresa.
Love in Christ,
Eileen

Marlene:
Hello, Tomorrow Teresea has her pet scan to see how the tumors from cancer are doing. She has been through many twist and turns since last July.
I can already tell you that she knows God is with her through all of this. You all know how she takes care of her Mother.
Well, chemo had been giving her some side effects as she is getting closer to being done with them.
She had an extension on her disability at work since she had to be off 5 weeks from the spleen surgery. She has had many up and downs.
The last couple weeks have been rough on her. She did not get to work much a couple of weeks ago. As, a fact one of those week she could not work at all.
Her disability had run out. For the most part she has worked through all of this. She is back to work this week and feeling better.
Today, she called me and informed me that the Hospital decided to pay her even when she cannot work. They had canceled all her medical Bills her insurance did not pay. But, this was way more then she had even thought would happen. God is really working good out of this terrible situation.
He is growing her leaps and bounds. Not to mention it is really making my Sister see God in action. It has taken stress off of all of us.
They are even going to pay her for the time she had off before.
I do none of this to show us glory. But, to show any who may be going through things how amazing the work of God is.
I do have to tell you she is such a delight and never complains. For some who do not know how she came to be in our life. My Sister was raped. She almost lost her while carrying her. God had a plan too bless us with her. Even, what seems to bad can bring good.
I know, that God has been using me to show my Sister, Teresea and others in my family his truths. The amazing things is Teresea never had a problem with it. My Mother never believed in Hell. My Husband is happy with it also.
I know, all the pain of those who family reject them. My Brother rejects me. My Husbands family think I am lost. But, they don't even know what I believe.
All, I can say is we are lights to the whole world. We wait patiently for the Lord in all things. I know, that our trials are for a good purpose.
I thank you all who have prayed and all who have followed with us through our journey of this trial.
In His Love,
Marlene
