Hebrew thank you for your response  but this is the only home for these people in the two cities,  a lot of things have been been over looked by health department because these people would not have a roof over their heads if this place was shut down.  There just isn't the money. By the way a Christian old black woman runs the place and she is a woman of prayer.  Mostly the old is there dying.  what a blessing it is to be able to die with your family beside you.  Its easy to see all the troubles of this world and think we are god that we have to do something about these troubles  but each time I have tried to help the Lord has firmly shut the door, and I have tried.  There are many people out there like me and my son  for what ever reason  living on the edge.  Always having troubles and heartaches heap up on.  Gods mercies and grace i have seen and in order to survive and not drown in this sea of troubles  I've had to hold on to Jesus.  But what about other countries?  like the Congo?  and the women and children  and their sufferings?  so much more     this forum is directed to the teachings of being form into the image of Christ as a elected one chosen by God.  Jesus suffered for the glory that was set before him, but he descended down to do the Will of the Father and to do so He took on the flesh of man.  Most peoples lives in the U.S. is very comfortable, we have a lot.  Compare us to other places.  I find our nature strives for that comfort and we justified and escapes from the suffering and tell each other we have rights setting up our imaginary standards of what is human and inhuman.  God is so much more than us and our pea brains and what His Will and His standards are what is including the Congo and my sons' home.  This is hard for me to accept.  I posted a song by Mahalia Jackson last month "  Lord don't move the mountain"  this saint of God knew something I did not.  Give me strength to climb.  there must be something more than changing our troubles our mind changing solutions.  I do not like the cross the crucifying of my flesh it hurts  way down deep inside of me.    I endure because i see others that have and this hopes is before me by the shedding of His blood.  Can we move with out Him?  do we or is it just a few whom He has chosen to this narrow way of restriction.  This Way we talk about on this forum, turning it upside down and inside out.  Do we really want it?  or do we just enjoy the delusion of being a chosen one?  Each time I am led over one mountain there is another flesh mountain to climb.  I heard everyone saying  something is wrong with your life for you to have to endure so much  or pray and cast away those demons.  ect...Who am i  no one.  We are simple born unto suffering.  I pray my testimony will not be God I am glad i am dying, at the end of my life.  I believe letting go, acceptance is some of the Way to the Father.  Maybe we could talk more about these attributes.  " what to do when the salt shaker is turn over and the contents is being pour out."  Personally my breath  is getting suck out and its slowing me down.  peggy

Peggy--

For you, dear sister....

Is it in the overcoming that we finally see His face?
What pain and fiery troubles now befall us in this race!
I dare not ask tomorrow's woes,
It's more than I can bare,
I know His arms and loving voice,
will find me when I'm there.

Love,
Joyce  :)

Hi Peggy

I shall be praying for you and your son that you may experience Peace in your life.

I found your posting very moving, especially with regard to our 'pea brain' and what we imagine to be the right standard of life. You make an extremely valid point, I have had these thoughts also. I am not sure that I could accept your circumstances as my lot. But I shall pray His will for your life and the strength to be in it.

I have a brother who suffers with Schizophrenia, his situation is not good. He is a gentle person and did marry later in life to a lady who is agaraphobic and with other stuff such as obsesive thoughts. Their situation is not as bad as you describe your sons to be, but it is not as good as I would like it to be for them. I also feel for my ageing mother who is concerned about what may happen to her son after she is gone. I find myself as an advocate for some of these people who are more vulnerable than myself. It's not easy, as here in the UK, these people are not really looked after either.

It has been an ache in my heart to see such people 'set free' ( a thought that has definately come from my old Chritian mentality) but God is in control, so who am I to argue with Him? But I suppose I would like to see my nation deal more justly with these more needy people. As I believe they have gifts and talents to offer to others.

Maybe I am just consoling myself, but if I am then God is letting me!

God bless you Peggy and your son.

In His wonderful Love
Karen

Karen:
Just to say Peggy
I listened to your link, Praise Him in the Storm.

My prayer is that we may always know He is with us and I was reminded that one day , there will be no more tears.
Thank God
love Karen
