Greetings and peace be with you 04/11/2009; I have always found the people here to be kind and encouraging in times of need. I believe you are much stronger than you give yourself credit for.
My mum had multiple sclerosis and for about the last twenty years of her life, she could not move her hands, or legs. I honestly do not know how she endured this for so long, she seemed to have a quiet and gentle faith in God, she rarely complained. She always seemed more concerned about our problems, than her own.
She could only sit in her wheel chair for two or three hours at a time, before it became uncomfortable for her, and there seemed so little any of us could do to help.
I can only say she is the strongest person I shall ever meet, she endured so much in loving kindness for others. Her body might have seemed dead to her, but she had a wonderful spirit.
This prayer is so powerful in striving to come to terms with the things in life that seem impossible to cope with, you are in my prayers. We must trust that God puts all things right in a greater good life after death.
Lord grant me the peace and serenity to live with the things I cannot change.
Lord grant me the courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference.
In the spirit of praying to a loving and kind God
Eric
