Thank you Kathleen for your words of encouragement. Boy! Did I need them! I haven't slept well for 2 nights now. My heart has been so very troubled what with a new marriage that I feel that I am failing at and financial problems and now I decided to stop drinking alcohol because I feel I was getting out of control with it. It has been 3 days now that I have not drank but I want to at times when things get tough and I feel that I can't deal with anything. I know that I need to turn more to the Lord through times like these. Please pray for me and my family (My Husband Bernard, Son AJ and Daughter Arissana).They deserve to have a mom who can be there for them 100% and not a mom who drinks too much. Thank you again for you comment. I so needed it!
Love, Your Sister In Christ - Darcy
FOR I, THE LORD YOUR GOD, WILL HOLD YOUR RIGHT
HAND, SAYING TO YOU, "FEAR NOT, I WILL HELP
YOU."
( ISAIAH 41:13 *NKJV )
We often face troubling times in our lives that
cause us to worry, and lose sleep. As a child of God you
have Him at your side, holding your hand, and guiding
your pathway through those times. For, THE LORD IS
GOOD, A STRONGHOLD IN THE DAY OF TROUBLE;
AND HE KNOWS THOSE WHO TRUST IN HIM.
( NAHUM 1:7 )
He will never abandon HIS Children, throughout
their entire lives. For He is always with us no matter
what we may face, as He further promised: WHEN YOU
PASS THROUGH THE WATERS, I WILL BE WITH YOU;
AND THROUGH THE RIVERS,* THEY SHALL NOT
OVERFLOW YOU. WHEN YOU WALK THROUGH THE
FIRE,* YOU SHALL NOT BE BURNED, NOR SHALL
THE FLAME SCORCH YOU. ( ISAIAH 43:2 )
[*Rivers and *Fire in the verse represent difficulties in our
lives]
Therefore, FEAR NOT, FOR I AM WITH YOU; BE NOT
DISMAYED, FOR I AM YOUR GOD. I WILL
STRENGTHEN YOU, YES, I WILL HELP YOU, I WILL
UPHOLD YOU WITH MY RIGHTEOUS RIGHT HAND.
( ISAIAH 41:10 )
So the next time you face troubling times, do as Jesus
said: "LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED; YOU
BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME." (JOHN 14:1)
Then WHEN YOU LIE DOWN, YOU WILL NOT BE
AFRAID; YES, YOU WILL LIE DOWN AND YOUR
SLEEP WILL BE SWEET. ( PROVERBS 3:24 )
Now have a great day walking hand and hand with God,
friend! Amen.
Hello Darcy!!!
Blessings to you!!!
Hey girl, this is soo wierd, but I have had the same kind of week you have. No JOKE!!! I didnt sleep Monday at all, and what was funny is that I was thinking of you, That is too odd, well it cant really be if you think about it. It a GOD thing.... But anyway, I havent slept at all since Monday. Ok, we, maybe I slept a golden 6 hours total so far this week. If that. R we crazy or what? Ha Ha!!! Crazy for God!!! God loves us and He is up all night every night. He never sleeps. Hes sitting there all night long with us just kicking back sayin,"Girl, Im here, now lay down, and Ill comfort you." I really think that he sits there with you and me and says "I AM. here. I AM your compfort and I promised that Id NEVER leave you nor FORSAKE you. So, if you would just TRUST ME and give ME all your BURDENS, Youll be able to do what I made your body to do! and that is to sleep!" But we are His little disobedient children with way too much on our minds. If you and I could let go, and give all of our garbage that keeps us in bondage all the time to God, then we might, just might get some shut eye!!! I am totally with you. I was sleeping ok up until a month or so ago. Then since I got all depressed again, I just dont want to sleep. Im paranoid and fearful. But the more sleep you miss the worse you and I are gonna get!
You are blessed that your dad will pray for you. I dont have ANY family that are saved. Its just me. I cant pray with anyone unless its my family in Christ. Whether it be at my church, or other churches I have worked at or clients I have worked for. I am blessed to have this art job becasue I have met the best Christian women around. I also ran into TheNet here,and I tell you, that it truly was a blessing from God!!! Im here for you. You are here for me. and its all because of AllAboutGod!!! Yeah!!!
I feel like I have known you forever. It souns like we have been through the same things too so, this is very cool. I have to go now, I hear one of my kids upstairs crying, so I gotta run. I have more to say, so Ill catch you later!!! Hey if you are online really late, we can chat? Maybe talk ourselves to SLEEP?????
God Bless
Paige
Hello Darcy!!!
How are you? Been thinking of you. I hope all is well for you. Im doing good. The weather is getting better. No more snow!!! Yeah! Weather makes a big difference in moods dont youthink?
Like you said, this season shall pass. they dont feel like it, but if we step back and see how our lives have really changed, it would make us feel alot better. God is in control of you and your future. If we give it all up to him, and let him do his job, we will feel alot better.
I am still here if I can help let me know. Send me a prayer request, or just come over to my page and chat with me. We could probably help eachother out!!!
God Bless you!!!
In Christ
Paige
Dear Darcy; welcome to TheNet. I know that here you will find wonderful Christian support. This has been a blessed site for me. I pray your health and mental issues are improving. I am a nurse and i know when people suffer from chronic illness it can easily put them at risk for mental health issues as well. Blessings sent to you. I have not only taken care of those people suffering; but I as well have been at the other end of the spectrum as well; as the patient with the health and mental issues. God Bless you in Jesus name. Mandy

hello dear Darcy:
How are you feeling today?
I was going through my library of books and I cam across another study book called "Breaking Free" by: Beth Moore. I did this study a few years ago, but I first recieved it before I was a Christian. I know that when the person gave me that book, that it had some valuable toold to help me, but I really in my heart didnt want much help. When I bacame a Christian, there was a study group that came up that was studying this book, So I did the group, and I can honestly say, WOW!!!! It spoke volumnes to me! This book indicates how anything and any emotion can become an addiction. I never thought that depression,anxiety,and fear could be an addiction, but it could be. Iim soo used to feeling that way, that having to change that is VERY DIFFICULT!!! Im not saying you are, but it was interesting. She uses biblical truths and very wise counsel from her own experiences with this. It is an incredible and "freeing" study. I highly recommend it. I like to read. Its hard with kids, but I really try to sneak it in somehow.
If you want to talk, I am always there. I do draw and paint murals, so there may be a time that Im not available, but leave a message and Ill get back with you as soon as I can.
God Bless you my friend and sister in Christ!!! U r loved!!
Paige/Net Moderator
Praise God! Wow! We are so blessed! YAY GOD! He is so good and faithful! I am so truly touched and blessed that God would use my story to reach you! PRAISE GOD! WE WILL GLORIFY HIM ALL THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES..FOREVER INTO ETERNITY AMEN!!!
Thank you for your welcoming note and blessings. I am glad for a new sister and friend in Christ. My best friend Charla invited me to the AllAboutGod site and am already reaping blessings of others welcoming me. God is definately good isn't he? Your note has encouraged me this day as I have been stuggling alot lately with my health and mental health issues. I have IBS and ulcerative colitis, hypoglycemia and panic disorder. Lately I have been frequent panic attacks and I have to take RX for it and I really don't want to. I don't want to be addicted to this RX and I pray to God every day to give me strength and courage to hopefully be able to get off of these RX and be able to function "normally" (if there is a normal). Thank you again for your kind words and sharing and lifting me up. I appreciate it so very much.
I also want to invite you to join our Bible study, In the Beginning: a study in the book of Genesis to help you know God better and grow in Him! You can click here to join the study.
Please let me know what questions you have. Once again, thanks for joining TheNET. I hope you make lots of good friends here and continue to grow in the wisdom and knowledge of the Lord!
I look forward to getting to know you.
God Bless! Carla/NET moderator

Hello my friend and sister, Darcy!
Welcome!! Im Paige, another moderator here on the Net. Im glad you are here. Because you and I share alot of the same "issues" and interests. Plus I never thought I'd meet anyone else that liked to swim in the ocean like I do. This is cool. Dont you think?
When I can swim in the ocean,which is very rare since there are NO oceans around here in Utah, I swim and swim and swim as far as I can, not even thinking twice about what may be underneath me. people call me the "fish". Last time I was in the ocean, I got in big trouble with the lifeguard because I swam clear past all the boundary markers. Oh man He was mad, but boy, did I have fun!!!!
As far as my Christian walk, I was baptised back in 2002 after a big battle with anorexia, bulima and majr suicide tendencies. I had a bad life. If you want go ahead and check out the Group Introductions" in the Womens Group and you can find out a little about what I went through before Christ. Now Im a new woman,friend,mother,sister, and daughter. I am not going to say Im "perfect" by any means, but alot better than what I was, lets just put it that way. The fact that you were baptised when u were 12 is awesome. I wish I did that, but knew nothing of God. So you were blessed my dear!!
As far as "issues" I can relate to the physical and mental problems that absolutely can cripple your walk with God. It does mine and it upsets me so. But we must remember that He is faithful and will NEVER leave us or forsake us. "His thoughts are not our thoughts. His ways are not our ways".
I have alot of mental problems which have caused alot of the physical problems. They go hand in hand I have found. Let us lift eachother up in prayer my friend. We need it. i will help you the best I can. I am there for you. Know that you are not alone in this. Alot of people share in the same "issues". Believe me.
Anyway, I hope to get to know you more. You are a wonderful creation In Christ. Congrats on your engagement too. That is exciting!!! Youll have to post your wedding pictures.
if you want to talk privately, my email address is pm.design@comcast.net. Love you!!!
